(not necessarily in that order)
Got carried away reading all the comments to a very interesting article in the New York Times. As a result I’m writing this way too late into the night.
Thank goodness I fall into such old habits less and less often these days.
I really enjoyed reading the six-word memoirs describing what made people thankful in 2020. I had never heard of this form of writing, but it’s quite evocative. The New York Times put out a request for them and received more than 10,000! I feel to share my favorites of the few that they printed.
The crinkling eye above the mask.
My choir still meets on Zoom.
I am bored, but not dead.
Healthcare workers. Healthcare workers. Healthcare workers.
Tried. Failed. Failed worse. Kept going.
Daughter lovingly uninviting me for Thanksgiving.
There’s really more kindness than hate.
Postponed wedding, having a baby instead.
I am thankful to be thankful.
