It’s been a tumultuous time since I last wrote here . . . We’ve had a complete shutdown, a re-shifting of priorities, a re-modeling of operations in every sector, and a social uprising. And none of this is complete/over.
We’re grappling with trying to understand, survive, and recover from a global pandemic–and doing it all at once! We’re on a 400+ year journey of understanding, surviving, and recovering from foundational, institutionalized, and continued injustices–a system ingrained and enshrined for centuries will not topple in a day, or a week, or a month.
It’s not exactly the time to sit back and sip coffee right? But, we are entitled to enjoy a cup or two–and we do need our energy, especially as we can continue to innovate and advocate.
So, I’ve returned here. It will be a gradual return, but I’m excited to write and explore, as I adapt to a new normal and fight for something better. Cheers to being back, and to coffee ☕
Cups and Comments 
Thoughtful post. Coffee inspired and based rituals, such as my morning doppio on my front porch, can provide a nice base from which to head into the day ahead. We need coffee now more than ever….Thanks!

Yes!! Now, I garden first and then enjoy my coffee; I sip while admiring my work — that routine and calm is more important than ever. Thank *you* for commenting and sharing 🙂
