Years later, I got visit Ground Zero in New York. I went to visit a friend who lived on Long Island, and we went there. It was eerie. I knew the moment we were headed in the direction of Ground Zero. It was like I could feel the wound of Sept. 11th long before we got there. We walked there, and it was just...I can't even describe it. I did see the large metal cross everyone had been talking about, and the area was just so big, such a large wound in the earth and in the city of New York.
What got me the most was a church that had survived completely intact right across the street from Ground Zero. I cried when I saw it because I remembered that church from years earlier in the 1990's when my family had come to New York, and we had visited the Twin Towers, even went up in one of them. That church was still there, untouched, a true miracle. I was glad I got to see Ground Zero. Being there was something I'll never forget either.
