Thursday's Trivia--Where were you?

When I was a kid, I remember the adults reminiscing about where they were when John F. Kennedy was assasinated...I was one and don't remember anything of that event. September 11th is one of those dates that sparks those "where were you when..." conversations. If you're a student you were 7-11 years old...this date may not have the memory for you that it does for the adults in your world.

Life has defining moments. Some are global and historical like Hurricane Katrina or 9/11. Some are personal like the death of a loved one or a health crisis. Some are just trivial, but significant to us like the last episode of a TV show, the death of a celebrity, a celebrated sporting event.

What are your defining moments?

Something of importance to me was meeting an interesting friend. Although I rarely see him anymore, he had a lasting impresion on me. Although he is an online friend he made an impression nonetheless. He always spoke in a very undescribable tone. It was artistic and interesting to hear. He could make small things sound like enduring truth. He made me think deep inside myself and speak words I didnt know. In him I found in myself something he would say all the time. Harmony.
