It’s November!
I think that means that a Thanksgiving-themed video is allowed?
We know there’s a great deal that divides us. The list of things that should put us on different sides of the aisle is long.
Yet there’s so much that we have in common.
The stuff we have in common often gets missed, glossed over, or ignored. The shared fabric of our lives is usually everyday and mundane, not flashy or headline-grabbing.
Yet we disproportionately see the divisions.
So I’m trying to carve a different groove for myself by looking first for what brings us together. Such as shopping carts. Or shoes.
Seeing this way really does make space for much joy.
My Shoes
In September we began inviting readers to “share their shoes” for the purpose of celebrating one of our most basic communal experiences.
Many thanks to the following readers who shared their shoes!
Let’s keep this going. Please share your shoes!
