The past weeks events have been insanely appalling. It is challenging to articulate succinctly into words my thoughts (without using curse words). Today I received a tweet from my son’s college baseball team (well, the athletic department) that is worded incredibly well and would like to pass on. Great job UMass Boston Beacons!

In addition, I allowed my thoughts to go to “What can be done”?. As with most things, we need to get back to the basics. I was reminded of one of my favorite quotes from the author Robert Fulgrum:

These deeply concerning events are being shared with people who are constantly making terrible decisions. We are better than this. Acts of kindness and generosity will help us navigate to a better place. To quote Ghandi “Be the change you want to see in this world”. Be kind, Be Awesome and always do the right thing.
