Lighthouse


On the heels of one of the most extraordinary weeks in my lifetime, I grabbed a blanket this morning and walked over to a lighthouse near the Hudson River to decompress. Upon arrival, I picked out a comfortable spot on the grass and sat down. 

Once relaxed, I began to feel the dewdrops clinging to the blades of grass, which prompted me to turn my body to the left to look across the river. In doing so, I couldn’t help but notice the ripples of the tiny waves gently crashing into the pier, followed by hearing the footsteps of a few runners passing by. As the scent of the flowers entered my nostrils, and the trees swayed side-to-side, I knowingly glanced up at the skyscrapers, and with that, I got lost in thought!

The first thing that came to mind was the melting pot that is NYC, the country’s most diverse and populous city. Considering all that is currently transpiring in the USA, I found sitting beside a lighthouse fitting; subsequently, I started envisioning our future shining bright. Moreover, I have an unyielding faith that we will engage in respectful dialogue, listen with open minds, and take meaningful action to make the world a better place!

I relish interacting and learning from each of you on this platform, so please share your thoughts. Enjoy your weekend!
