A Melancholy Recap to Start the Holiday Season

We have arrived, already, at the week of Thanksgiving. The past few days have brought their fair share of heartbreaking incidents – another mass shooting at a gay club in Colorado that killed at least five, a Brandeis shuttle bus that overturned killing at least one, and my own Auntie Naty – one of the most memorable and challenging members of my Dad’s family, passed away in the Philippines. All in all, not a great week – and now we are supposed to give thanks. Well, in gratitude may we find grace, and peace.
