Sweet Reminiscence

January 25, 2022 by Gina Marie

On a frigid weekend in January, I spent much time indoors reading old journals. It was like reading letters from a a wise, funny, and admittedly moody friend. She doesn’t physically exist in the Here and Now, although she comes alive through the words and images captured on the journal pages from years past. We meet on some non-physical plane, and reading about her experiences, I enjoy our time together. This Other-Me teaches about acceptance, patience, and courage to withstand […]

20 Years of Remembrance

September 12, 2021 by Gina Marie

I biked to Lower Manhattan yesterday morning, on the 20-year anniversary of 9/11. Although the Memorial Fountain was closed off except for family members of the deceased, former Presidents, and the NYPD, still the surrounding vicinity was abuzz. International media outlets filmed news segments, their anchors speaking words of remembrance in various languages. Across the street, onlookers flashed cameras as a chorus of Amish schoolchildren sang a capella, their voices a balm for collective mourning on this warm September day. […]

Positively Jubilant

November 7, 2020 by Gina Marie

November 7th has been forever cemented in my mind as The Day America Remembered It Was Not A Dictatorship. I learned the news of the Biden-Harris victory while hiking along a wooded trail in Prospect Park. Although this was a secluded area and I saw no one within eyesight, I nevertheless heard cheers and horns honking in the distance. It took me a few seconds to realize what this must mean: Biden had defeated Trump. I dug my phone out […]

A Moment of Change

June 1, 2020 by Gina Marie

Allyship towards people of color involves recognizing the racial biases that may live within me and committing to counter these subtle, insidious patterns of thinking. I can choose to speak up and ask for feedback from trusted peers of color, instead of remaining silent as I might otherwise be inclined to do. Similarly, I can seek to learn about the history of racism and ways in which discrimination has impacted and continues to impact POC today. I can make an effort to live life with compassion, respecting and honoring differences rather than seeing them as barriers.
