What major historical events do you remember?<\/div>

To remember events is important to keep the memories of those events alive, or more precisely, so we never forget. I have been privy to a few events, some major to me and my family but also more mainstream historical events too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Princess Diana. In bed sleeping at the farm, I was like 14 or 15. My Day barges into the room, sticks my TV on, and watches all the coverage of her crash in Paris. You could feel the sadness of the whole thing. Mother-in-law off’s princess. I still don’t know what to believe with that one. I remember the butler getting a book deal out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9\/11. Again, in bed, I hear the sound of the workers from the factory flooding into the gun room at the farm, and I’m glued to the TV. I stumbled in half-dressed just as the second plane hit in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mum. August. Dad left a message on my phone at 4 am. Just as mum’s favorite song, “Son of a Preacher Man,” started playing, she squeezed my dad’s hand and drifted off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad. August. Holding his hand and saying, “You do what you need to do,” I squeezed his hand and he was gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christ, what a depressing end to a post!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
