The world has lost a bright light with the passing of Ann Korologos. I will remember most her kindness, unfailing generosity, contagious laughter, and the deep love she shared with her husband Tom. May you be at peace, dear friend. We miss you. washingtonpost.com/obituaries/202…

A beautiful, heartfelt tribute from the wonderful ⁦Céline Gounder, MD, ScM, FIDSA 🇺🇦⁩ to her late husband Grant. And a powerful reminder that the growing wave of health misinformation puts all of us at risk. Wishing peace and healing for Céline in the days ahead. nytimes.com/2023/01/08/opi…

After a few long days with both kids sick, now listening to the quiet breathing of my son as he sleeps on my shoulder. In awe that a simple sound can bring such peace.

Thank you to the countless people in 2022 who reminded me through their quiet examples that there is still great kindness, compassion and generosity in the world.

A request: I'm looking for recommendations on inspiring speeches. Any favorites? Could be from any time, any field, and could include speech compilations/mashups too. Much appreciated!

“Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and the pain of it no less than the excitement and the gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it…all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace.”
F. Buechner

“Comparison is the thief of joy.”

Pondering this quote (attributed to T. Roosevelt). Our moments of deepest fulfillment and joy often don’t require being measured against the yardstick of other people’s accomplishments or opinions. In such moments, we just know what matters.
