We Walk Together
The other morning, my friend Rita sent me an op-ed from The New York Times. It was authored by Pope Francis, and the title was “There Is Faith in Humor.”
I love Pope Francis, and reading his piece was the perfect way to start my day. His words reminded me of the importance of laughter—especially laughing at oneself. The Pope wrote that even he jokes around. I mean, c’mon! If that isn’t a reminder to lighten up, I don’t know what is.
A few days later, my friend Sandy sent me Paul Krugman’s last-ever column for the Times. It was titled “Finding Hope in an Age of Resentment.”
"Optimism is a Maria subject. Go at it,” Sandy said. I loved that assignment from my dear friend.
