NOTE FROM THE CEO

I heard someone say recently, “The pandemic has stolen two years of my life.” There is no question that we’ve all had a tough year followed by another tough year, but we are stealing from ourselves if we allow that mindset to exist.

This month’s edition of our Digital Digest is filled with the stories of men and women who, even in the face of adversity, manage to extract countless moments of joy out of cooking, running, restoring cars, caring for others, acting, playing in bands, and other pursuits as individual as they are. They have not allowed anyone or anything to steal two years, let alone a single day, from their lives.

As we head into the new year, let’s resolve to understand that despite the many challenges we face, we are still blessed with much that is worthy of our notice, celebration, and gratitude.

Let’s cultivate the energy of abundance and be mindful of the countless blessings that unfold before us every day: a warm shower, a hot cup of coffee, a good friend, the touch of a loved one, the inspiration of co-workers, the generosity of those in our community, the power of technology, the loyalty of a pet, the miracle of modern medicine, a good book, clean water, a good night’s sleep, a deep breath. There is so much to be thankful for each and every day.

Let’s not allow ourselves to become controlled by fear, negativity, or scarcity.

Let’s be optimistic and solution oriented. Let’s develop a quiet confidence and be aware of the abundance that constantly surrounds us.

Happy Holidays and many moments of joy in the New Year!
