People all over the globe are asking themselves what is most important to them. The uncertainty has allowed the hardest of questions to surface. The sudden abundance of time has been an opportunity to reflect. But more importantly, the pandemic has brought us face to face with our own humanity, the inevitability that we all will die. This is what lies beneath the pondering.

I value my little family. I value time spent with them. I value solitude. I value movement. I value rest. I value deep connections and conversations. I value play. I value nourishment. I value work. I value people doing their best, wherever they are. I value differences. I value presence. I value being right here, right now.
