Where were you when the world stopped turning? I was in first period Spanish class. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Yesterday I did my favorite stairs workout. It’s a tough 51 minutes of agility, climbing the stairs in a variety of ways, and then a sprint across the top of the parking garage (ok, so it usually turns out as a slow jog). I was thinking of all the prep I needed to do before my next trip, when out of nowhere I started thinking of the firefighters who had to climb the stairs of the sky-scraping World Trade Center towers as they were crumbling. Those firefighters—and regular people at work who stayed inside to help others escape—climbed stairs in a situation I cannot begin to imagine. The firefighters climbed up and up and up wearing incredibly heavy gear, probably wondering when the stairs would fall right out from under them. So I climbed my stairs for the heroes. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Tomorrow I start my travels to Morocco, a Muslim country. But am I afraid? Absolutely not. My experiences in Turkey, Qatar, and my Muslim friends and acquaintances here in the States have shown me over and over again that the terrorists of the world do not represent all people of Islamic faith. My travels have given me a broader perspective of hospitality, kindness, and myself as an American. Check out my post from a few years ago all about a traveler’s reflections on 9/11. Today marks 18 years. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 LINK IN BIO
