In This Together
It’s one of my favorite hashtags going right now. It’s the only way to be, to my mind. Not just in a pandemic, but in life as well. In this together.

Different people look at the same painting, listen to the same song, consider a particular situation or opportunity that arises, or decision that is needed, and have different takes. It's a mixed bag at best. Some times those differences can seem vast. Sometimes those differences …
Juxtapose
Side by side we go through life. So many different ways this plays out, consider these few. Unless we choose the hermitic life, we strive to live with others. Friends, colleagues, even strangers, we go through this world side by side. If we're lucky, there's even that ONE special, other person with whom we share …
