Editor’s note
Dear colleagues,
The start of a new year is traditionally a time for new resolutions. Not withstanding, not many of us could have ever imagined just how impossible those seemingly simple resolutions would be to keep in the past two years. We certainly had no inkling of how dramatically our world would change. Now that we know how radically our tomorrows can be turned upside down, it might be time to revisit the idea of resolutions. Instead, let our new resolve focus on those things that we can attain no matter what life throws at us. Be kind to others, virtually or otherwise. Learn about something new, take care of your physical and mental health-you don’t need a physical gym to get moving. Cut yourself some slack. Be truthful, keep an open mind and show grace. Be a good human.
Whatever you do, make the world a better place.
