| SulliMike23 2004-04-22 ch 1, | abuseGod I was ready to shed tears when I read this. I never knew you experienced all this. To tell you the truth I couldn't believe what had happened that day. It started reaching my ears from a pair of girls in the hallway before I was going to my next class. They were talking about it and I didn't believe it at first but when I saw what was happening I was in shock. When I had learned that it was a terrorist attack, I felt anger reaching me. Then after I got home, I did my best not to cry but one tear managed to leave me that day. I still try my best not to cry when it's 9/11, but I can't help myself; I too felt so helpless that day that I couldn't do anything. But by writing this it proves that you're a strong person despite what many may think. In my opinion, there is no such thing as a weak person. To me it's nothing more than a figment of a person's mind and the only thing weak is a person's mind and you don't have a weak mind. Those who would call you weak should look in a mirror and see their minds. Just remember this, nobody is weak if they shed tears; it only makes them a strong person. Even the strongest person can shed tears. |
| mystikwolfguardian 2004-02-04 ch 1, anon. | abuseim trying not to cry as i read this...i lived in NewYork all my life...not in the borough the Twin Towers were in, the borough next to it, Queens. I remember that day when i was in fifth grade and i got pulled out of class and chaos and destruction was everywhere...one of my aunts and my neighbors worked in one of the towers...i was scared for them, scared for everyone in America..that night i couldnt sleep, as a 5th grader having naïve thoughts that we will all go down one day just like the two pillars. But i also remember not really caring since i wasnt so politically involved being the 11 year old i was...and it didnt sink in correctly like it was supposed to...no one i knew had died so i didnt really care so much...but come to think of it..imagine what i wouldve felt if there was some1 i knew who were in those buildings..under the rubble and dust...it felt horrible..and i remmeber every following year we would sit outside in the sidewalks holding candles in respect to those heroes...and the news everynight showing workers digging into the mess to look for..parts and remains..-__- sorry im sort of boring you with this arn't i?...i just feel like i can relate to this because i actually live in new york and go to manhattan frequently..so im really really really glad someone who doesnt live in NY cares for people who live halfway across the nation..and worries for them...and on behalf of everyone , thank you so much...your poem has really touched us...and even if you weren't there at the scene...i can tell that you understand...im just so glad my family is here safe and sound...just so very glad.. ^_^ |
| ultimateX moonshine zoidpil... 2002-12-24 ch 1, anon. | abuse*sniffle sniffle* this is truly touching and even though September 11, has passed I don't think anyone who can forget . I even downloaded where were you when the world stopped turnin.keep writing.Ja.^.^ |
| The Masked Instigator 2002-12-04 ch 1, anon. | abuseI did not know you had this on here until I looked up your name, and I'm glad that I did. I agree with your views completely. That was such a beautiful poem and explanation, I hope you shared it with more people than just FF.Net. I am in a elite chorus in my school, and on the September 11th anniversary this year we sang "The Star Spangled Banner" for the entire school. And it was a good thing that I was in the back row, cuz I could hardly sing I was crying so hard. I didn't know anyone who passed away, or anyone who lost a loved one. But I did cry for those orphaned kids,the widows and the boyfriends and girlfriends and best friends that were lost. I cried for the brave and the ones who didn't know they were dying that day, and I prayed for every one. We need to remember and value the power we have in faith and freedom. Thank you for posting your poem, you made a big difference to me. |
| QueenBattousai 2002-11-29 ch 1, | abuseHi, just to let you know, I became very patrotic after 9/11. I have even written some of my stoies around that terrible day. Oh and just to let you know, you got a line in the song wrong. In the part where it says, "I watch CNN but I;m not sure I can tell you the diffrence in a rock and Iran." It supposed to be 'Iraq' but he pronounces it as 'a rock'. Don't worry about it though, its a common mistake. As you can tell, I've listened to the song too many times! XD! Red Phoenix over and out. |
| Sakura Blossoms 2002-11-20 ch 1, anon. | abusewow that was really sad i feel the same way. I always cry when that song comes on and i hate it when people talk bad about 9-11 like that i saw the same video you did at my house it was so sad i just cryed my eyes out. i cried while i was reading your fic it was really good. That was real beautiful. Sakura Blossoms T_T |
| MATNCE 2002-10-20 ch 1, | abuseOH THANKS YOU DO SOMETHING FOR SEP 11 BUT NOT MY B-DAY!!!? just kidding. that was very nice thing you did, im happy that some one did something like that :O) and to tell the truth i didnt care that much at fist as well. felt the same way as you. well take care, see you at school |
| Sick Little Fiend 2002-10-08 ch 1, | abuseThat was really sweet and moving. My reaction to the attack on 9/11 was similar to yours: I didn't really care at first--in fact, I was mad at my mom for waking me up--but later I cried. Once again, that was really sweet. |
| Vash Worshipper #4 2002-09-21 ch 1, anon. | abuseThis piece is very moving. I know how you feel. I wanted to cry, but I couldn't; I think I am still in shock that it happened, even after a year. That day... our ancestors will look back on that fearful day and remember... Remember that we aren't invincible. |
| AlexisRayette 2002-09-16 ch 1, | abuseNew Yorker here... well done. Honest and moving. I might not have been one of the ones you wanted to reach, but know this - I read it and I heard you and I understand. I'm sure that others have read it and will read it, and they will also hear you. You're reaching someone out there, trust me, you are. Keep at it. Peace! |
| EclipseKlutz 2002-09-16 ch 1, | abuseYour right, not many of us can forget what happened on September 11, I won't, and I know many others who won't either. I hate my response to it too, until it was explained to me. I wish my teachures would've been aloud to tell us... About the part in which you said you could've been there, I do too. Over 3,000 children lost a parent that day and not many people cared, most were just afriad... and for themselves, not the state or the other people out there. One thing I will never forget, is the lines spoken to me that day by my great grandmother. I'm Glad I read this |
| Aneli 2002-09-13 ch 1, anon. | abusethis sort of mirrored what i experianced that day, and the days that followed. it's interesting to really see how people my age felt and to see them admitt that at first they were clueless too. this is actually the only thing i read for 9.11. kudos to u :) |
