Interesting tribute and memorial... but I'm curious and dont take offense - are you personally still grieving for the tragedy or... cashing in on it?
Most of us are just tired of it all. Bit its the day the world changed.
Cashing in on it??
What exactly am I getting out of this?
I only write what sits on my heart..and the number..is just staggering..and it touched me very deeply at the time..and still does.
This post is simply to relate to the amount of people.
Your long post really emphasizes the incredible amount of people who have been impacted.
Wow very cool how you expressed your thoughts on this.
David
it is an incredible way to express yourself - unusual in it's simplicity, creativity and beauty...
listening to the song actually brings the sadness to life again - not that I would ever forget - it's too painful...
the song, the words.... and I was in tears..
Thanks for the timely and poignant rememberance
FG -
The way I feel about the 9-11 tragedy is different to the way I feel about other tragedies...
I think Hashem wanted it to be so....
the fact that every scene was caught on camera...
So that we should never forget..
Something should touch us deeply - for in this life, we forget things all too often, too quickly and don't remember that Hashem is sending us messages - unfortunately it has to be one, with such great impact...
I remember thinking after it happened -
that my grief was so strong..and overpowering...
and I guiltily thought - 'why don't I ever feel this way about Tisha Baav - when the Bais Hamikdosh was destroyed - and so many were brutally killed - oceans of blood...
and then I realized that if I would have access to the 'scenes' - if I could replay the tragedy each time - I would never forget - it would have a tremendous affect - fasting and mourning would be a natural consequence... the lessons would be learned..
And here we have these 2 giants of buildings.. the one my father used to tell me about as I was growing up..
'You know, X, ' - he would tell me - 'These buildings are going to one day be the tallest in the world' - 110 stories high...' - and I would be fascinated with the details...
These are real memories for me - but also teach me - that other tragedies are as real - and to try and relate to them..
Unfortunately, it is a tradedy so great that caused this effect to take place...
Anyway -
It's why I disagree with the fact that it's 'hype' - it isn't - I don't think tragedy ever is.
Well I thought that was a powerful piece-- you didn't tell me you were getting paid for paying tribute -- wow David that is so cool you know I'm kidding right--
Powerful post
TOWIK I wasnt even in America when it happened... I feel so out of it when it comes to the details all other NYers have... yet its such a reality to me.
And I just dont want to see the memory trivialized. David, I am nto saying you did that.
FG
I wasn't in NY either.... (was living in london already..)
I think though, that everyone can remember exactly where they were when it happened...
I called my friend in NY that morning- her husband picked up - and after I said 'what's new?'- he said -- 'an airplane just crashed into the world trade center - we're watching it on the news..'
and I'm like,
'right, yea sure... (he jokes alot)
so what else is doing..'
and then he says - 'oh my G-d, another plane just went in..!' - and he gave the phone to his wife..
Obviously.... it was only too true...
My brother had just gotten engaged at the time.. his fiance worked right near the twin towers and was evacuated, but could not call for hours.. there are no words for how he cried until he heard she was okay..
memories....
I was in NY and it was devastating. On a little bit of a lighter note you might think it's funny I was more than halfway finished reading this when I noticed it wasn't saying anything else. Halfway!!! I need my coffee.
lvnsm...
It really makes you think of it as more than a number..
swfm...
thanks
towik...
Its still very fresh to me...alot of things help bring back the feeling of that day..that week..and I try to..get that again..because it was such a strong moment..emotionally in my life.
bonnie...
Thanks...
It would be nice..if I could somehow make a living by blogging..
fg...
I'm the last person that would trivialize it..
towik II...
yea...the not knowing what on earth is going on...was one of the hardest parts..
seeing ur whole world turn upside and not getting cell phone signals..to talk to loved ones..
jemima...
thanks...I know what u mean
sara...h
lol...well actually..if u wouldve continued to the end..u wouldve noticed a little addition..
Not to be a downer on a cool poem, but you forgot a few people--
terrorist-- evil
terrorist--cruel
terrorist-- heartless
Well you get the picture-- dirty, rotten,-- but they died there and don't deservet o be mixed in the company of innocents-- so maybe that is why they are absent from the poem
bonnie...
I agree..they dont deserve any mention...
limey...
I was watching the whole thing happen..live
As for the music...They start playing before u press play?
They don't play without pressing play, and I saw the additions I was just saying that I was reading for about 15 minutes thinking something was different somewhere and I couldn't catch what it was.
sara...h
yeah..I find that after awhile...of scrolling and looking ur eyes start playing tricks on you..
i like this
tis my style
never forget
each one has a whole world
a whole life
we look at numbers
they are worlds
they are complex
we see simple
sabra..
so very true..
moiy...
ur a quick learner..
:-)
limey...
next time..play copland..(down a few posts) together as well..
