On behalf of all of us at Halfstack, we wanted to take a moment to remember September 11 and be thankful for every day...better yet...every moment...and live for it. 11 years have passed and I still remember what I was doing that exact moment that I heard of the Twin Towers falling.
It was late arrival at school and I was at my house getting ready with my cousin. We had the music blasting and dancing around with no care in the world...
...and then her phone rang...
...and the tv was turned on...
...and none of it really made sense, but we knew that in that moment...life would be different. My heart goes out to all those families that lost a beautiful soul that day. We all go through life and sometimes forget about important and tragic events that have happened during our own lifetime, but this day should remind us that we are all the same. Human. Different in so many ways, but connected by our souls. We should take this day to remember the souls who fought for our country, the ones who passed and who are still present. A day to remember the souls that were taken too soon from their wives...
...husbands...
...sisters...
...brothers...
...partners...
...cousins...
...soulmates...
...Their friends...their family.
We need to take that day and remember that we are all one in the same...we all want to be safe and feel joy and happiness. We need to remember to stop hating each other and most importantly stop hurting each other.
Here's to a memory that will never be lost and to a future where we open our hearts and souls just as much as we open our minds.
Cheers,
