I was speaking with one of our mutual colleagues the other day, about the state of our country. He encouraged me by reminding me of all of the awful things we have come through in this nation; slavery, civil war, Jim Crow, etc. He said if we could get through those things, we could get through this. I am not fully convinced, this all seems pretty bad. However, I am now reminding myself of those awful times to encourage myself. I never thought thinking of Jim Crow would be used for my encouragement, but here we are.
