Thanks for sharing that Baby. Very moving. Every year since is a punch in the chest when I look left just before entering the midtown tunnel and see the old skyline when I close my eyes and the forever changed one when I reopen them. The new tower is a beauty and it was encouraging watching it rise. But it will never replace what was lost.
I remember working in east Rutherford NJ, you could stand on the top of the building and see the WTC. I moved to Texas in 1998 or I probably would have been standing there with my buddies on the roof watching it collapse.
I was in WT1 the week before in a meeting with Cantor. My firm worked very closely and I had a corporate apt in NY and was there weekly. The person I was meeting with is fine. He was not in NY that week. The 600+ other people at his firm were not fine. I honestly don't remember a single face I saw as I walked past them to the conference room. But I do "see them" every 9/11.
