I have seen
news in the past weeks,
And I am
saddened by what took place.
However,
I do not want to give in to the nightmare
As I want
to go on with my life.
I do not
want to watch news too often,
For all
it will do is paralyze me in fear.
My family,
though, believes I do not care
Because
I do not react in exactly the same way.
I understand
one very important thing:
Not all
people react to the same thing the same way.
Just because
my reactions differ from others,
That does
not mean I do not care.
I am trying
to do what I believe is best in my heart,
To go on
with life and live it to the fullest.
I will
not allow anthrax or terrorism to haunt me,
And I will
certainly not watch the news 24-7.
To be too
absorbed with news is not a good thing,
For all
it does is bring back the pain all over again.
I believe
the best way to beat those responsible
Is to stand
tall, be proud, and go on with life at its best.
