What was I doing on this day 5 years ago?
I'd watched open-mouthed for 5 solid hours with my housemates and friends as the coverage of the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centre towers unfolded on our TV screens. I felt shaky, sad and unsure of what the future held...
What was I doing on this day last year?
I'd just been caught out text-cheating on my boyfriend and I was sleeping on the sofa, while the drama of the end of my relationship unfolded around me. I felt shaky, sad, and unsure of what the future held...
What am I doing today?
I'm watching "The Path to 9/11" on the BBC, thinking of my friends and family, remembering the beautiful man that I'd been texting this time last year, musing on how much things change, and yet stay the same. I feel shaky, sad, and unsure of what the future holds...
Or do I?
No, I know what my future holds, and I know it will be OK. But now, just for now, I will cry, and find solace in my tears.
Tomorrow is another day.
