We talked about what it was like to look for colleges when everything is closed and you can’t really go and look at colleges. I told her I couldn’t imagine how hard that must be...trying to make such a big decision when life feels so......suspended. She shrugged and smiled softly, shared her plan B and possible plan C while sitting in this flower patch, showing me what it looks like to keep calm, adapt, carry on.

There’s so much LOUD happening in the world now. Sometimes you have to stop and listen to the people that know where the quiet is.
