Connection, Meaning, & Impact:
Look at children who’re in deep thought. Especially when they’re tinkering with their toys in the loneliness of their room. Do they feel the same pity and shame we feel when we’re alone during milestone celebrations or community festivals?
Connection gives our life meaning and purpose. It drives us to make an impact and to make a positive difference in the life of those around us. This can be a way you can help and reach out to those as our world comes together in our collective Covid suffering.
Give the gift of time, to those who need the most, from the comfort of your home.
When all is said and done, we’re just all walking each other home. – Ram Dass
