gratitude & silver slivers

4/14/2020

0 Comments

 
In an effort to keep my chin up amidst the many unknowns today, I've made a point to focus on silver slivers to be found in the pressing fog surrounding the world right now.
A few silver slivers in my world today...
  • Mornings
  • Community
  • Work
  • Bread
  • Netflix
  • People finding brilliant ways to work through the  distance and support each other 
The one that sparked the list today is this one...
  • People going above & beyond with their time & resources to support students & provide distance learning through creativity during closures

Creativity can reduce the sense of isolation that inevitably results from social distancing. Many of these classes and offerings would have been out of reach or non-existent before the closures. People who create understand the value and power creativity has to see people through challenges, and they're stepping up to provide it for our kids.

So thank you to all of the overwhelmed, busy creative minds out there giving your time & resources to support the students I love.
