It is hard to imagine what life was like in January and February of 2020 as COVID-19 has consumed our worlds. In March, we all made a shift to accommodate and attempt to curve the spread of a virus. And now, as we close out 2020 we find ourselves with greater numbers of lives lost and infected.
There are some silver linings to this year, for one, a long-overdue focus on social justice and envisioning a society that is equitable for all, two: a shift towards trusting technology like platforms such as ZOOM (although we all have the Zoom fatigue), and three: for YoJo a renewed spirit in loving the land - this year our COVentures took us from beach trips to several opportunities at Lotusland, to Big Sur (Jordan’s first time!) and beyond. Road trips filled our world as working remotely allowed for extended stays in some of our favorite spots.
We continue to feel blessed, lucky, and grateful for the opportunities we were able to enjoy this year, while so many have struggled or been less fortunate. This year, we encourage our friends and family to take stock of all the fortune you have and give back if you are able. Feel free to contact us to learn about some of our favorite nonprofits. Our hope is that we are able to spread some love, cheer, and joy safely so we may end the year on a high note.
From our family to yours, we wish you a safe, beautiful, and fun holiday season! <3 YoJo
