23. i find it too painful to watch
i didn't know anyone personally that died either. but just everything that happened was so horrible.

mostly it hurts to think about the people who were trapped up there waiting and hoping to be rescued but ended up dying. the people who fell or jumped to their deaths. the ones where it wasn't instant.

it's just thinking how people were just going on with their lives. an ordinary day in most people lives. and what that day turned out to be.

i also keep thinking that after the first plane hit people in the other tower i think were told everything was ok and they could stay in the building. i know there is no way people could have known what happened and that it wasn't an accident. but i wish they had all left the buidling. how many more people would have been saved.

i guess one good thing is that it does seem like there is more attention on the victims this time.
