I couldn’t move.
I couldn’t stop watching.
I couldn’t believe.
I couldn’t stop feeling guilty
Thinking of all of the people who could not turn off the horror,
and go back to life unchanged.
I felt such sorrow.
May there be peace in the souls
Of those lost
And in the hearts of those
Who lost.

You’ve summed up perfectly, all those feelings of that day, Colleen. Those unbelievable scenes, played over & over again, as we watched in total disbelief. Those poor people & their families, & the scars felt by those who tried to help is unimaginable 😥

We were living in Rochester, New York, at the time. Everyone we ran into knew someone who died that day. It was really hard for a long time. The New York Department of Revenue lost an entire office of people that day and the manager in Rochester had started many of them on their career path. I really thought he was going to have a heart attack for a while with how stressed out he was over the loss.
