Nightline: Survivors
I don't watch much television. Occasionally, it plays in the background as I work on my laptop. Tonight, Nightline ran a piece called Survivors. It was among the most deeply disturbing, emotionally wrenching television that I've ever seen. Basically, it shows us burn victims from the Pentagon in their recovery over the past year. I'm one of those people that doesn't get queasy watching surgery video but this program was designed to reach the unqueasy among us. After watching this, I feel both lucky and guilty to be able to get up and bitch and moan about my commute, my job, etc. The constitution that these people display in their recovery is inspiring.
I, for one, will not forget.
