This is just a "wondering if" kind of question.
I'm 27, and when I was 7-years-old, my uncle showed me a tape of Terrible Tuesday in Witchita Falls, TX just before my grandparents moved there (Terrible Tuesday, for anyone who doesn't know, refers to a day when two major tornadoes ripped through the area, then joined forces and obliterated a lot of the area in and around Witchita Falls).
I've never told anyone the impact that had on me, but to this day, when I think of tornadoes, or of my uncle, a little part of me remembers that experience, and it's kind of like I've held a grudge (even though it hasn't actively traumatized me or even affected my relationship with the uncle) for 20 years.
Anyone else have an experience like that, where someone did something that scared/angered you so much that it never completely left your sub-conscious?
