Today is July 1, and this means as of today, we are entering the second half of 2026.
I know that many people in our world — actually, probably most of us — have been living with more uncertainty than makes us comfortable. And some are experiencing these realities in the extreme.
But among the things we can impact, were there certain hopes tyou set for 2026 as you entered this year? People and places you wanted to see? Encouragement you wanted to provide? Art you wanted to create? Nature you wanted to appreciate? Goals you wanted to set? Values that you wanted to live?
However those are going, we can renew those hopes any time. Here’s the Second Half.
