A L O H A From Honolulu!
You are not obligated
to complete the work, but
neither are you free
to desist from it.
Pirkei Avot
If you smile at someone,
even behind their back,
they feel it in some way.
It accrues to their benefit.
And to your own.
Every act of forgiveness
mends something broken
in this fractured world.
It is a step, however small,
in the long, hard journey
to redemption.
Rabbi Jonathan Sacks
In hard times, people don't
want to be told to look
on the bright side.
They want to know
you're on their side.
Even if you can't help them
feel better, you can always
help them feel seen.
The best way to support
others is not to cheer them up.
It's to show up.
Adam Grant
