About my music: I interpreted Stephans melody very free and tried to express thoughtfulness, dolor and grief, but also fear, threat and damage. I played it more slowly and added two other sounds in two parts of the track: Strings combined with choir. The instrument I used was a Korg E-Piano SP-250 and I recorded it in one go. 
About my situation 12 years ago: As today it was a Tuesday afternoon in Germany, when it happened. I was a teacher in my former school, a boarding school, and had to take care for some pupils making their homework, when suddenly another kid comes in and shouted: "Mr. Kruhl, the Israelis bomb the White House!!" Well, we know, that's wrong and this message seemed to me so obscure, that I laughed and asked him, what movie's on TV … Driving home later on I heard some irritating news in the radio about a terrible air accident … Not till I saw the news in the evening on TV I realized, what happened. The TV was on for hours and I couldn't believe, what I saw … and - of course - I had to cry. 
Let me send you a thought-provoking impulse here: 
"(…) The hour has come for us to demonstrate at the highest level our most extraordinary thought about Who We Really Are. There are two possible responses to what has occurred today. The first comes from love, the second from fear. If we come from fear we may panic and do things-as individuals and as nations-that could only cause further damage. If we come from love we will find refuge and strength, even as we provide it to others.
(…)What can you do TODAY...this very moment? A central teaching in most spiritual traditions is: What you wish to experience, provide for another. Look to see, now, what it is you wish to experience - in your own life, and in the world. Then see if there is another for whom you may be the source of that.
If you wish to experience peace, provide peace for another. If you wish to know that you are safe, cause another to know that they are safe. If you wish to better understand seemingly incomprehensible things, help another to better understand. If you wish to heal your own sadness or anger, seek to heal the sadness or anger of another. (…)"
