I was there in December 2003 when it still was a big mess, no construction yet. It was hard enough to see it then. I haven't been back to see the memorial yet but I imagine it would be unsettling at best. Some day.I was there yesterday. It seems a lot of people have forgotten the fear and anger that took root that day and now see it as another day to party on streets cordoned off to traffic. I suspect those people weren't here 20 years ago. It was much more solemn on-site.
It was my first time visiting, and I still wasn't prepared after 20 years.
Here's a pic I took:

I will have to see if I can still track that down online. I've watched many shows dedicated to 9/11 but I don't remember one specifically about the children joining the fire department. I imagine many of them would have done that even if they hadn't lost a parent on 9/11. But they all deserve special thanks for their contributions and dedication.

My wife flew into Newark a few days later (ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED I might add), saw some smouldering. We went back together the following year to pay our respects and said a prayer by the Pit. She passed away before the memorial was built, but my daughter and I went together and it IS moving, especially for people who had been in the Towers in the past (in my case, many times for business and pleasure).
The new WTC is fine and all, but the twins were a signature of New York--and America.

I will NEVER FORGET. All the lives lost, and terrible effects that continued for years!
My personal life was severely impacted by this. Every year I stop to reflect on everything that unfolded. 24 years later I still remember. Hits very close to home…

I can't belive I opened this thread. Especially today. I can't put on the TV or listen to the radio.
Everyone has a story. I just like to be in my own place. Still tough to talk about being there.
Everyone has a way to reflect. Not everyone wants to be reminded.

I couldn't agree with this more. I cant tell my story, of which I still have survivors guilt, without crying. I have found in just last couple years I can at least read some things, but videos and pics are a total no still
I hope you've found peace with everything

I have survivors guilt for something terrible that happened to people I love but I made it out relatively safely. The only peace I have found in that regard was when I feel the survivors guilt, do something positive for someone else. It’s just training your brain. Maybe that will help you today. Hugs to you.
