Editors Note What doesn’t break you, only makes you stronger. Have you ever thought, “I am strong enough already!”? I mean, seriously, have we had enough already? From the pandemic to racial injustice, the world seems to be spinning out of control. Each event heightening our stress levels and pulling us further apart. Unfortunately, I mean that both figuratively and literally. I don’t know about you, but I miss people. The separation has made it all too clear how important people are in my life. There is something about living in the reality of loss that deepens the understanding. I think it’s interesting the themes that were set in place at the beginning of the year, as I look at it now. Going into March with the theme of Question, May focused on Failure, and July centered on Beauty, it all seems a bit surreal. We have been forced to really look closer at our individual impact on the world. It pushes us to question the systems and organizations we have in place. And it’s time to ask even more questions… better questions. We have to look at what is failing. It’s time to break down what isn’t serving us and build new. The process can be, and most likely will be, painful and uncomfortable. But it’s how we ensure a strong future. We have all been brought to the table to take a hard look at where we have been and consider where we are going. It’s a time to come together with curiosity and start asking questions, encouraging innovation, and building communities where people can thrive. Everything we are going through is rough, but it’s revealing its beauty. It isn’t always going to be obvious, but that’s where stillness and gratitude come in. We need to focus our attention on what is important, what is beautiful, and what is right in front of us. As always, I encourage you to lean into the conversations. Many of them will be difficult. No longer should the conversation be about “us versus them”, but instead, about “we”. It’s time we ask why the room separates into two sides, when usually our deepest wants and needs are very similar. Can we honor each other with our appreciation for our uniqueness? Can we come together to create a safer and more beautiful world? Let’s find the beauty in everything and everyone around us. You are beautiful.
