A face that has endured 20 years of endless pain. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI \u003cb\u003efoolishly \u003c\/b\u003easked that face, when does it all end? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs I rubbed my legs, the short answer was clearly not today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI often wonder if this specific pain was terror's intent. Were they smart enough, or evil enough to know that their diabolical plan would leave me in endless \u003cb\u003epain? \u003c\/b\u003eIs anyone that mean? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs I share these worlds, I boldly scream there is not a man or woman, living or dead I would ever knowingly and with malice or intent, heap this much pain upon. No one could tell me making a claim to \u003cb\u003ebeing\u003c\/b\u003e human in any s\u003cb\u003eetting;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e this was\u003c\/b\u003e God's intent. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eI go to sleep in pain. I awake during the night in pain. I begin my day in pain. If I should be so foolish to attempt it, I even express passion once again in pain., silly silly me. I've endured needles in my spine based on claims that in the end, I would be pain-free. It just isn't to be. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf I should think it to be a dream come true, \u003cb\u003eexpressing\u003c\/b\u003e passion comes with pain too.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI share my story in the publication, Remembering Ground Zero.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank Passarella,Vincent E.
