Christina Green should be, and IS, an inspiration for life. She did more with her short 9 years than many of us do in 10 times that much time on earth. I find myself touched by this little angel that I never met, and owe her a debt of gratitude for what she has shown me through her example.
She has reminded me that one can never take a single day for granted.
She inspires me do set down emotional baggage that I have been carrying for far too long. To Jimmy, principal investor of Gunslinger Records who lost his life in the World Trade Center on Christina’s birthday, I wish you a peaceful farewell. Good luck to Ritchie and Drew; safe travels to wherever your journeys take you. It was a great ride, but now it’s time for me to move forward.
We must never forget the tragic events of September 11th, 2001, but those of us still on this planet can consider ourselves fortunate to carry on, and remember that even in despair there is hope and renewal. The same holds true for the new humans who will come after her, and who will replace us when we are gone.
Thank you, Christina. Although I did not know you, and only learned of you through the heartbreaking circumstances surrounding your departure, I can honestly say that today there is at least one more person who is better off for having known of you. Rest in Peace.
