I completely lose it when I see the images of the planes crashing into the towers

Reading your post made me realize how much I still am in shock over that image. I still look at the videos and think, "What was it like to be in the planes or the buildings?" I just can't take it in and compute it yet. The closest I get is when I think about the man who called his mother from the second tower and was on the phone with her as he looked up to see the second plane headed ... right for him. His mother heard him scream and the line went dead. But I still can't really grasp it. I don't look forward to the day when it becomes graspable for me.

There was a slide show of pictures taken on 9/11 from someone who lived across the river. The first picture showed the the towers after the first plane hit. The last picture shows the skyline without the towers. When you compare the last to the first, it breaks your heart all over again.

I understand what you mean .. I think a part of me doesn't want to because I may just really lose it

What an awful day that was ..
