The+Decade+from+Hell+jm

This decade is coming to an end and bringing new mysteries. These last ten years have been filled with devastation and horrified moments that I'm sure that people wish that it was all just a bad dream. A dream that they could wake up from and know that everything was all right. That they would never have to face such a harsh fact in reality. But little did they know that their ugly nightmare would soon come to play. There has been multiple wars all over this world and so many of them in just one decade. For example, we have had military troops fight battles in Afghanistan and have lost many soldiers in that war. Then we had this terrorist attack with the airplanes flying right into one of our buildings in New york, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon. You know that whole big deal called 9/11. If you ask me, I think that it's more than just a coincedence that those airplane incidents all happened on the same day. I mean, what are the odds of all of that happening on the exact same day? The answer is plain and simple and everybody knows it. There goes a bunch of our loved ones being taken away from us. And for what reason did they have to leave the people that is most precious to them behind? Because of someones twisted intention? I have no clue but that was a terribly cruel thing that happened to us. Especially for those who have lost a family member or friend in that tragedy. Speaking of such distasteful memories, the war that our country is currently battling in Iraq. How many lives have we lost already from this continuing catastrophe? How many people have we lost in general? Or mistakes it will take to make us say that this has gone on too far? What will it take to make this blood shed come to an end once and for all? Who knows. Maybe it will, or maybe that is wishful thinking. Either way it is a nice thought to think about and I think that this decade is all of the names it has been given. It was full of broken dreams and nightmares that had come to life. It would be nice to never have to experience such a thing ever again. And I am pretty sure that I'm not the only who wishes for a miracle like that.
