Part 1: Consider it Pure Joy

From "Vision Series 2020." This year, we take a different approach than regular. The cascade effect of a global pandemic, recession, a summer of violence between police and protestors, wildfires, and our city on the front page of international news on a reoccurring basis has left us exhausted. Is there a way to get through 2020 without permanent damage to our soul? Or more: could there be a way to come out the other side more mature than ever before? And full of joy?
