Experiencing where our lives as they were; changed forever.
Humbled; proud of my country; proud of who I am; emotional.
The Dove; now in the middle of where the towers once stood. Behind the Dove, our response. Fear will not prevail. We build again.
The only surviving tree from the explosion. Up close, viewing her wounds, I could feel her tremendous loneliness. Had there not been barriers, I would have hugged her with all of my might.
