Call me what you will, naive being the biggest one of them. 
You'll understand why briefly.
On recent events a number of something of the same subject has come up (books, films, tv programmes, youtube links, plays, conversation.) 
Over ten years later, and I finally fully understand how devastating it actually was, proving my innocence of such cruel things in the world and how naive I was.
I recently got cast in a play so Ive been reading over this play to get the grasp of it all, the play has lots of youtube links in it that I thought for me would be a good idea to search and watch which within minutes of watching one, I was in shock. My face frozen to the same expression for the next hour or two, as I kept watching more and more and more.
On this, I wanted to do anything but go on to a subject about that. 
I somehow found myself on amazon looking at books (because I like to read!!) and I was doing the whole (Look Now ->) I was reading the first chapter of this book, It has me completely in grossed, within minutes of finishing the tester I bought it!! I couldn't wait for it to arrive, I completely neglected every piece of work I had to do when it arrived my main priority was to see what happens in the end.
Funnily enough the book was of the same subject as my play and the videos, I found this quite odd how I picked a book that I thought had one them instead had two which linked.
When I finished the book I went flicking through channels when I cam to a film that I'd not seen before, whilst watching it seemed the theme from the play book and youtube was in this film.
The next trailer was about this recurring theme. 
I found myself suddenly being involved in conversations about it.
My perception of what had happened had been changed I felt a lot more understanding about.
9/11
One of the biggest global pieces of history and it took me ten years to figure out completely what it means.
Wow!!
It is just remarkable my interpretation of the events had been twisted upside down.
The book - 98 Hours
Play - Decade
Youtube - just search 9/11
Film - Remember me
Advert film trailer - cannot remember.
