🌏 The view from above, during that tragic moment frozen in time.
🕯 On this solemn day, we pause to honor the memory of all those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and to stand with the families, friends, and communities forever changed by that tragedy.
At Celestis, we are reminded of the resilience of the human spirit... of our shared capacity for remembrance, unity, and hope.
🌇 May we never forget.
