also the sh!t that happended caused, or better said, accelerated change on a global scope. let's see how this will all turn out.

hopefully more multipolar, less divergent into extremes and less neo(-liberal, -conservative, -dumbassed) than the world has turned out in the last decade or some years more.

That was a day when I talked to strangers I had never talked to before in my neighborhood. I lost a big fear of talking to strangers in general that day, as a matter of fact. It's just not a problem for me anymore.
As the buildings collapsed on live TV - and I can't believe that I am the only idiot on earth to admit this out loud - my mind involuntarily flashed on the Death Star pulverizing Alderon, then I immediately felt ashamed for thinking of Star Wars. But a vacuum open up inside me and I felt like something in me was being crushed lifeless too. It's the closest thing to true horror I have ever felt.
I hadn't equated the years-long depression I felt that followed with 9/11 per se, but I do find it strange to realize how much lighter I finally feel this year, the same year that Osama bin Laden was captured and killed. And I don't know what to think about that - feeling better that someone is dead now.

the OBL thing was totally surreal to me, whereas 9/11 felt very real, despite the geographical distance and the cineastic live pictures (that made me deeply think about emmerich's "independence day", the scene where the white house gets kawoomed by the starship... hearing about a plane also hitting pentagon gave me the shivers in connection with my very initial thought about that very film)
