entry arrow6:12 PM | An Amazing Grace for the Planet

I am amused at the calls on Twitter to “reset” 2020. If you think about it though, the coronavirus IS the reset button. Excepting the tragedy of people succumbing to it, the coronavirus has actually allowed Earth to “breathe” again, has made people rethink politics, and has also shown us the vapid limits of autocrats here and China. And we have been made to still ourselves from the dervishes of our lives. To quote Dessa Quesada-Palm, “I am actually enjoying the slowing down of life in general.”
