I avoided visiting this memorial for several years after it opened. I was not prepared for the experience and I dreaded the dark place I feared it would take me to. After my visit I came away with a totally different experience. One of sadness yet hope. One of admiration for the spirit of man overcoming the evil of some. This image personifies my dark feeling before entering the museum.
