What is your life like right now?
Life is bouncing between a strange sense of urgent immediacy and a quietness that only comes with waiting. I feel disoriented like I’m ricocheting between sudden overwhelming sadness and panic and then...normalcy. It’s surreal. That being said, I am counting my blessings every second that we are healthy and safe—I recognize so acutely right now that this is not the case for everyone.
What’s making me happy: sweet sunshine and birds singing, listening to my comforting favourites for music, and making some good old fashioned Jewish Penicillin–chicken soup!
