This year has been a constant test of resilience. The pandemic is enough, the ongoing trauma of racism and watching countless murders of Black people is too much, and adding to that the loss of so many of our heroes in one year feels simply unbearable for many of us. We need to grieve, we need to process our pain and we need to give ourselves and each other all the grace in the world to do what is necessary to make us feel whole again.
Today and every day, I go deep into prayer and meditation. It’s how I find peace and clarity to be able to process all that’s happening right now. And it’s the only way I’m able to constantly build and rebuild resilience to be able to choose joy, choose hope and cling to the beautiful things that I’m trusting God for in this life.
