\nHere in London, it's spring, and the blossom is emerging with its brightness and beauty. At the same time, we humans are living with an unfolding worldwide epidemic that threatens lives and livelihoods. Can we learn to live in these times in a way that opens us to both grief AND joy, to both fear AND our responsibility for one another? A conversation about the necessity and power of including and turning towards everything in these big times, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

\n\n\n\nDon\u2019t Hesitate
\nIf you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy,
\ndon\u2019t hesitate. Give in to it. There are plenty
\nof lives and whole towns destroyed or about
\nto be. We are not wise, and not very often
\nkind. And much can never be redeemed.
\nStill, life has some possibility left. Perhaps this
\nis its way of fighting back, that sometimes
\nsomething happens better than all the riches
\nor power in the world. It could be anything,
\nbut very likely you notice it in the instant
\nwhen love begins. Anyway, that\u2019s often the
\ncase. Anyway, whatever it is, don\u2019t be afraid
\nof its plenty. Joy is not made to be a crumb.
