I am so glad you posted these photos and your diary. I was in Chicago (living in Kansas City – a 2 year work stint) and was transfixed and heartbroken in a way I never felt before. Mostly I wanted to go home and help somebody, do something. I know how you felt, wanting to do SOMETHING. I flew back as soon as I could and spent time with friends and family (brother a FDNY Battalion Chief who lost 30 guys there) and industry friends. I worked downtown for 25 years at that time and had just left a job at the Exchange, down there at Ground Zero and lost colleagues. It was so wrenching I thought my heart was yanked out. I guess it was worse in a way since I wasn’t home. Or maybe it wasn’t. But today my colleagues and I talked about that day and what we did and who we lost and how tight we all were with one another and teared up — I think it is great that you ran around taking pictures. They are great.

I try to remember the feeling of love that we all felt in the midst of that. I would give anything to get that back.
