I have thought about this word a great deal- this forgiving, kind, thoughtful word. As we come out of this pandemic year, having grace for ourselves as we look in the rear view mirror is so healthy and clarifying. We got through something extremely difficult and foreign. Me made it to the other side, into this new ever-changing world, and we need to enter it with grace. We all have regrets and missed opportunities but we also have excitement, endless possibility, and renewed gratitude. I hope that "grace" is a word that I hold onto moving forward, a positive thread that continues past 2021.
