You have a choice.
Choose kindness.
All year I’ve been re-learning how to ride a bike and conquering my fear of two wheels. Here’s a post about the bike that (I hope) is turning me into a Bike Person ™️ 👇
A few days ago, in the calm and comforting environment of my apartment, I patted my gently snoring cat, steeled my nerves, and typed “What is fear” into Google. (Isn’t that the way we solve all our problems now? Can’t log into email today?—google if the site is down. Not sure what temperature to roast a chicken?—google Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion. Not sure if that cough is a sign of COVID or cancer?—google it, but understand that the internet will always tell you it’s cancer.)
With all of the horrible things happening in the world, it’s nice to find the wins. Especially in the area of our environment. A group called Coral Guardian is restoring coral reefs, and it’s quite magnificent.
These photos represent 7 years of work on the Indonesia’s Hatamin Island. In this they have increased the fish population by 5x with 53k corals restored.
More wins like this, please.

A little scene from a walk today. I am visiting a friend north of Prague and we had our first snow.
Image description: a few cottages with steep A frame roofs on a hill. In the background are more hills. The trees are bare or with golden leaves.
