Pre-pandemic, there was never enough time in the day. Never a moment of stillness. We multitasked, scrolling through our phones, juggling commitments with work & personal life, jumping from one thing to the next.

During the pandemic, life completely changed. Not only were we forced to slow down, we were forced into unnatural lives of solitude. Separated from loved ones & starved of the basic interactions that make us human. As our individual lives were put on hold, seasons changed & time continued to tick by as we watched from our respective window-seats.

As we now emerge from our period of isolated dormancy & life’s pace picks up once again, I am more apt to heed the lessons of that period of suspended animation. To continue a slower pace of living & to especially savor the precious moments we have with those we love.

How has it changed you?
