I think when trapped in a spiral of depression, life can feel impossible to break free Christopher, I was trying to imagine here the survivors of 911 waking the following morning, if indeed they slept, facing the nightmarish enormity of dealing with and accepting what happened on that day, cheers David

Hi David, This is such a deep and thought-provoking one-liner. This made me think of Groundhogs with Bill Murray.Well done. Have a great day-Alexis

Thank you Alexis, I've been watching some documentaries on 911 of late, and I think some (survivors) feel this way even now, cheers David

Thank you super Mo, I think most normal thinking people probably felt this way on the Wednesday when waking up, cheers David

Cheers Jan, I remember the morning after 911, when I woke up, hoping it never happened, that it was indeed just a nightmare, such was the enormity of the events, cheers David
