Why is September significant to you?
For me personally it is because of my fathers birthday, fathers day, September 11th, and a few others. My dad died just recently so that's a big contribution to why this month is important.
Some people may flame and say stupid thread.. well let them. I enjoy seeing what honest posts people make when they're not trolling or flaming.
