Being down and out of commission for two weeks was a blessing in that it reminded me of a very important value of this very company to make space to rest + play. Just the other day, in scrolling through Instagram and being enticed by the ads along the way, I ended up downloading a game called Block Blast.
In Block Blast, you drag and drop blocks of different shapes and sizes to form rows and columns.

This past season has given us an overwhelming period of time to sit in stillness, reflect, and just be with ourselves in a way most of us probably hadn’t before.
