What We Lost, What We Learned
In Circles, At a Distance. Taken on March 21, 2020.

The sermon at Second Unitarian a few months ago when I started this post was about what we lost and what we learned three years after the beginning of COVID. When I think back to that year, it is hard not to also see if from a personal lens.  2020 was the year that Mony fully entered my life, we experienced the power of activism, we elected a new President, and I started a new job. But with COVID, the overwhelming experience was one of disruption, disorientation, and absence.   That is what I think these photos from 2020 tried to capture.  What we we lost and what we learned are much bigger questions.
