Today I was craving silence so, no TV, radio or the computer was turned on. I was blissfully working around my apartment & decided to head out to do some errands. A neighbor in the elevator said, "It's so terrible what happened to London, isn't it?" I was so out of the loop that I thought he was referring to their 2012 Olympic win. Once it was all revealed, shivers went up & down my spine. Bombs on subways & buses is something that I do think about here in NYC. I'm always aware of big bags or boxes on the trains. But, after a while, it seems so unlikely that something like that could happen. But it can. I must remember that. My mom called & told my to take a cab into work. I told her I would even though I knew full well that I would not. It's difficult, but one thing that Sept. 11th taught me is that one can not live in fear. So I'll be riding the train everyday as usual. And I'll be thinking of all of those people in London who will eventually do the same. My thoughts are with them.
