Design a life you love. A poem.

As our lives hung in the delicate balance between life & death, there wasn’t a person on the planet who was not affected by the Covid-19 pandemic profoundly and who fearfully accepted that the subsequent quarantine was mandatory.

For some, it was the ultimate test of endurance faced bravely yet for others it was a lesson in what it meant to surrender, humbly.

For many, it was both …the place where resistance was rendered fiercely and submission tackled sublimely.

One thing is certain, though …

The pandemic granted us permission while asking us to make a decision.

Permission to not only to design a life but to make the decision that the life we design will be one that we love, absolutely…

Here are:
