Why was there such a tangible connection between me, a ship, and a tragic event of such epic proportions that the utterance of its name still epitomizes great loss?

TITANIC & ME my iceberg conscience

Cutting a solitary figure, standing at the very edge of the now decommissioned dock in Belfast where the then-largest movable structure on Earth ever built was launched one-hundred and nine years earlier, and over half a century before I was born, I looked as far out to sea as I possibly could. My isolation, aided by the chill in the air and the winter breeze made me confront a question I needed an answer to. Why was there such a tangible connection between me, a ship, and a tragic event of such epic proportions that the utterance of its name still epitomizes great loss? Whilst I was totally overwhelmed by the wonder of human endeavor and ingenuity, I instinctively knew that this alone did not fully capture the hold this moment in history had on me ever since I care to remember.
