It definitely changed me, B2Y. I was watching the Today show like Sally. I will never forget seeing Matt Lauer's face when the first plane struck. He was interviewing an author at the time. I was in a state of utter disbelief. I thought it had to be some kind of accident. I didn't live far from where flight 93 went down.

I felt like we lived in a country that was insulated somehow from this type of thing. Stupid, huh? I know now that this can happen anywhere, anytime. That's how it changed me. I'm much more fearful, especially for my kids.

I feel like I should watch some of the programs today. If only as a tribute to the people who were killed and their families. I feel like I should try to feel some of their pain, which I know is impossible, but I should still try.
