US Navy Blue Angels Fly Over DFW Honoring Frontline Workers
America Strong. Yes…we are!
During this pandemic, I’ve had the chance to reflect on a few things and above all, being thankful is one of them. I left a career in technology to pursue my passion of storytelling by way of a camera. For nearly the past decade, I’ve shared in many of life’s special moments and milestones with my clients – through their joy, solace and hope.
Our world has abruptly changed in the recent weeks. Amazingly, what has risen above this whirlwind of change is the spirit and strength of COMMUNITY. It is tied in the very walls of each of your homes and it extends throughout North Texas and to lands beyond. We’ve witnessed neighbors coming together to bond in ways that they’ve never done before:
⦁ Families are “Going on a Bear Hunt” during their daily walks.
⦁ Neighbors coming together to help others who are in need or may not have family.
⦁ Neighbors decorating their yards with holiday lights and figurines to add some cheer, everything from Santa Claus to the Easter Bunny.
⦁ Neighbors supporting local restaurants by ordering take-out.
⦁ At 7 PM every night, we’re honoring our front-line heroes with an outdoor applause and cheer.
Like many of you, I was so moved by the special tribute from the US Navy Blue Angels to our DFW front-line and essential workers. The moment reinforces my gratitude and appreciation for all of our local heroes – from healthcare providers to teachers and postal/delivery carriers to our city’s essential workers. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to stay at home safely and take care of our families.
As the Blue Angels flew through the DFW area, I was able to share that moment with everyone across North Texas. To my surprise, I received such an overwhelming amount of feedback, after posting my photos on social media; and many inquiries of how to purchase them. I am so honored!
While I’m not a front-line worker, I have always wanted to be able to contribute and help our community, and this is my chance!
