watching the january 6th capitol hill hearing
the most compelling, wrenching, and heartfelt testimony
i have ever witnessed
raw pain
anger
hurt
disappointment
honesty
trauma
bravery
humanity
shock
duty
courage
heroism
scars
strength
loyalty
overwhelming emotions
unanswered questions
not one person immune from tears
i could not take my eyes off of them
and I am forever changed
questions must be answered and justice served
never to happen again.
