Nor will I

That's in Battery Park

I'm not sure if it's still there, but it was when I took this picture Summer 2009. It was the most profound moment of my trip. I just stumbled across it and began crying.

Im pretty sure it still is and I have no doubt I will cry when I see the Ground Zero Site.

What is this?

Interesting sculpture. Does it stand for something I can't see.

I was listening to NPR radio today and the writer of a book interviewed. It was about how he thought in the days following 9/11 that it would turn the U.S. around the decline that was started would stop and things would change. That the daily lives of people would change and neither has happened.

I didn't hear the beginning so don't know what his premise was.

I believe it has changed the daily lives of Americans in ways his book didn't recognize.

It's a sculpture called The Sphere, which once stood at Ground Zero. It was pulled from the rubble and now stands at Battery Park as a memorial (though it is still to find a permanent home).

I believe that day changed the world in many ways. It lost a little more of its innocence.

On this day 10 years ago, the world has changed. We should never forget.

Never, I promise ♥

It's scary to think about it, it still makes me so sad. Even though I am on the other side of the world, I remember the moment we heard about it on the news, and watching the coverage on CNN. I will never, ever forget the moment we saw the second tower collapse on TV - I was with my parents and we were so stunned while watching. It seemed so surreal.
