This time of year the nostalgia of the season often leads to reflection on the past year with its successes and failures, its losses and gains both personal and professional, and we may take a moment to reflect on how fortunate we are and how many people are suffering a great deal more than we. This year all norms have been turned upside down. There has been great tragedy, great loss of life, and ways of living; small businesses have closed for good, as have our favorite restaurants and shops, and all in the service industry are suffering.
These losses are being felt all over the world and a new normal is emerging. Human beings are amazingly resourceful and even at our darkest moments the generosity of our fellow citizens has been remarkable, whether it is those on the front lines in health care and all the first response services, or the person who buys food for an elderly neighbor, the acts of kindness and compassion are inspirational even in the face of all the bad news.
There are also front line workers in the endless battle for preservation and protection of our precious wildlife and environment. We all remember in the early spring when the world shut down how the air cleared up and smelled sweet, more birds sang and water ways were teeming with marine life - the natural world was allowed a moment and it responded with a burst of activity leaping for joy like the dolphins in Venice's Grand Canal.
It was so terribly short lived that I fear we may all have forgotten that amazing display of Mother Nature too soon. Please don't forget what it was like to smell air that was almost edible and vow to never forget that one moment of magic which reminds us of what a price human progress has exacted on our fragile planet. We must embrace new methods of conducting our lives that are more compatible with the survival of all species on this planet ... or ... face the consequences sooner than we think.
We at WHWF continue to teach alternatives to habitat destruction and the importance of the biodiversity of species without whom we can have no quality of life sustainable on planet earth.
May this unusual end to a historic year serve to add to our reflection and encourage our resolve that the next 'normal' becomes a better 'normal.'
Warm thanks,
Stefanie Powers
