Winter seems to be keeping its cold claws in us, doesn’t it? It can sometimes be hard to imagine spring when our lives keep getting whipped by a cold wind that seems to grow only more vicious the longer it blows. But spring does come, as Ada Limón writes in “Instructions on Not Giving Up” like a fist to an open palm. It takes slow, patient care but we can build spring in this winter. And you all are doing that. 

You all built something beautiful and we’re so grateful to be a part of it.
