“So, how can I describe my feelings? Is it even possible to put into words what a 11-year-old kid felt when he heard the news?”
This is the first time I’ve ever posted on September 11. It’s blows my mind that I never wrote anything on it…it seems I’ve been blogging for forever.
So, how can I describe my feelings? Is it even possible to put into words what a 11-year-old kid felt when he heard the news? Fear? The feeling in your chest–the constriction–like you’re in shock, and want to cry, but you can’t. Your eyes are wet, but the tears won’t flow. Your in shock, and just don’t know what’s going to happen next.
There’s not much to describe, except images, which for most of us, seem to be engraved in our minds forever. They’ll never leave, no matter how hard we try to put the away.
So I present to you, a feeble attempt at some images, and some short commentary on my part.
