A new reality...

The past while I have focused on studying, reading, knitting, and painting as well as spending time with family. As difficult as this time has been in the world, I have been so grateful to be able to slow down and do the things that bring me peace and calm. I can't help but think of the families who have been directly affected by this and, as I did on 9/11, I try to remain present by making things with my hands, by painting (for me) and baking (for my family). It can be hard to be grateful in times like these, but I am trying to remember to document everything I am thankful for each and every day.
