Thank you Brianne... I am ‘its complicated’. I’ve also mused in the weirdness of “I hope this finds you well?” Yet during the Pandemic that became a fervent prayer. Also, I do think there’s some truth/value in Jon Kabbat-Zinn’s idea that if you’re alive and available to consider that question you are, in fact, basically ok... or well. A colleague of mine usually replies, “well enough”. I hope you are well enough in your blanket nest and out of it.
Thanks, Michelle. I agree it's complicated, and I appreciate the wisdom and perspective of Jon Kabbat-Zinn. "Well enough" — yes! I can see that answer being so handy. Thanks for much for reading and sharing this. I always love hearing your thoughts.
