Although I'm a huge proponent of fact-checking, I could not agree more with the above statement. This whole essay, to me, feels like the equivalent of placing the final jigsaw puzzle piece into its position. Full picture. Clarity. Complete.
I mentally cycle your daily mantras during my daily interactions with the public, colleagues, friends, and family. Holding the center from my little corner of NC.
This is brilliantly articulated. Thank you.
