"Renewal, Day 2" was beautiful. Well written, lovely to read. When people look back on diaryland, I hope that personal accounts of big events like this one will stand out as a good example.

I can't really say I know what you feel because I don't. All I know is that if it happened in our country, I'll be terrified. What with the phone lines not working. That'll be even worse. But maybe you'll all get through it safely. Maybe they'll build another WTC twin tower or something. Or maybe nothing else rebuilt will ever help you people feel better. But I have heard and known all my life that America is a great and strong country. You guys will get over it and feel better. Hang in there. :) I know I'm not helping much. I'm actually trying to write something comforting here but obviously not succeeding. Just have faith.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and emotions as they come out today for all of us... I'm choked up right now just reading your latest entry. Hang in there. We'll live to see tomorrow hopefully, and we can all start picking up and putting the pieces back together. Take care of yourself... You're in my thoughts! -M

I hope all is well for you, eventually. It's like that here, in DC, too. It was as if it were a scene from a summer blockbuster (a la Independence Day). ..All of us, stopping in the street, to stare at the fighter planes. Crying. Shedding tears over the Pentagon, and those many we/I know in NY city. May everything work out, and that who did this, be dead. Heh, yes, DIE DIE DIE. Sorry, can you sense my anger and frustration at the world?
