HONORING HER MEMORY
Christina Taylor Green (9/11/2001 - 1/8/2011)
"I just want her memory to live on, she's a face of hope, a face of change," she said. "Stop the violence, stop the hatred." Mother quote
A life bracketed by two national tragedies: born on the day (9/11/2001) of the bombing of the Twin Towers in New York; died on the day (1/8/2011) of the tragic shootings in Tucson, Arizona.
All of us - we should do everything we can to make sure this country lives up to our children's expectations.
Obama Arizona Speech: 'I Want America To Be As Good As She Imagined It'
In the words of a wonderful and loving friend:
“I am starving for relationships… that are nourishing, congruent and genuine.
In life so many… relationships are surface relationships (I also call them veneer relationships.) The surface is scratched, the person’s heart and spirit is never reached.
…with middle school age children, I am the ears they so badly needed to listen to them. I am the non judging voice of understanding and reason. The boundary setter for they know no boundaries. Their safe heaven to share their dreams and disappointments.
…my passion for the elderly to assist them in fully living regardless of their physical limitations make me whole. My caring is rarely rejected and I regardless of
the amount of positive impact I may or may not
… the act of loving my fellow humans brings me joy and strength to continue on and stay in the light.”
