It brings more clarity to the situation for those of us who were far away to see pictures and hear stories from those who were.
Seeing the scenes on the television news and listening to reporters was horrendous enough, but the real life testimonies like yours and others here are just so heartbreaking.
I hope that more good does come from this dark day in our history then we have already experienced. This nation coming together right after as one voice was the one bright spot in all of the horror.
There is still a giving spirit now, and I pray that it continues. God Bless you!

I think it's our responsibility to bear witness to it and make sure that our spirit and resolve never waver.

I wasn't even supposed to be out there that early, but I left very early that morning to vote in the primaries. For a while afterward, I couldn't understand why it felt like I *had* to be there -- that I was put there to witness it -- but my dad said that perhaps it was so that I could tell the story and make sure that we never forget what happened and why we're at war.
