We recently returned from a cousin's wedding and a flood of memories from childhood regarding family has occupied my mind since. Mostly the greatest and fondest of sorts, but also some hard or uncomfortable ones. Along with those came a tremendous appreciation for the things that make my family so wonderful and how much I value them.
I started to entertain thoughts from this on a grand scale of citizenship, working my way back to a smaller population pool to where I might start to find these same feelings. It was an open ended thought that needs exploration; hopefully design, that gave way to questioning how I am/can provide opportunities for my own children, loved ones, & closest friends to have opportunity to grow these same memories and connections.
