I didn’t think this would be as severe. I saw it as a scary movie on TV and I wanted to reach for the remote. Life may be different after this. But as we cling to normalcy, behind closed doors, as we cradle our children and bite our lips before the reality before us, I want to share a thought. Just a little one. I want to send a message to you if you’re struggling, if you have lost your job, or are concerned about the health of your loved ones or your own. The unknown is coming, and its speed will wreak havoc on our society and our psyche. I urge you to breathe deeply and look skyward, where there is room for our troubles. I ask you to tightly hold your loved ones, as you would any other day. In this hopeless hour, I send my love, and deepest belief in your resilience, your grit, and the good in your heart. This is our finest hour. Together. Emboldened. Driven by love.
