When we hear the phrase never forget, let us not hear it as a call to remember the pain, the horror, the loss. Let us hear it and remember what we have endured and overcome, the selflessness we have witnessed, the lessons we have learned, the shoulders we have offered to be cried upon or have cried upon ourselves, the love that we have shared. In pivotal times we reflect on our darkest moments to seek light in our present and shine it on our future. Today, we remember. #neverforget #remember #tributeinlight #heroes #september11 #strongertogether

Spotted on the New Brighton cliffs. The turmoil of the last seven months has felt like just one obstacle after another. If there’s one thing we have learned, it’s that we will have to rise to the challenge and put in the work to manifest real and lasting change. Our Foundation is putting together ways in which we can contribute towards the campaign for a better community, and a better world. Let’s look out for each other. #strongertogether #fightthegoodfight #gettowork #capitola #capitolavillage #communityminded #lovewhereyoulive
