Outpouring of worldwide support on 9/11

I'm sure many of you have seen videos of the many people all around the world that showed support. I saw an american flag on a Tropical beach, 3,000 candles burning in Oslo, 3,000 petals falling in St. Pauls Cathedral in London, Choirs in New Zealand and Japan singing together....

All around the world people showed support for us and let us know they cared. I thought it was very touching and felt it deep.

I will admit i've been anxious and worried lately. I live in downtown Portland and my g/f works in the busiest mall underground in downtown and I cant help but think about the possibilities. This support came at the right time, it tells me that i should stop worrying, theres nothing i can do and worrying doesnt help.

What do you guys think , did you like the show of support? do you guys feel anxious also? War pending, terrorist threats. Hearing about the guy that got into the chemical weapons depot outside of Salt Lake City, or the guy at PDX airport that was caught leaving the states w/ false identification, LARGE amounts of cash and traces of explosives in his baggage...
Just makes me think SOMETHING has to be going down, and while we wait to kill Hussein he's probly got weapons here waiting, waiting for the invasion so he can strike back.....

It's best not to worry. Nothing is accomplished by you worrying. best thing to do is just keep living your life as best you can.
