Happy New Year!
2021
It's here at last!


January always feels
like a fresh start.

A blank page 
waiting to be filled.

What will we do
​with this new beginning?

Here are three resolutions 
to guide our purple work
in the new year...

Resolution # 1
LISTEN
Let's resolve to listen
to each other.
​2020 brought 
an election year 
where the discourse
volume was
turned on HIGH.
Let's take a moment to 
lower the volume 
so we can actually 
hear one another. 
Let's continue to seek out
different perspectives 
with the goal of 
listening mindfully,
building empathy 
and finding 
common ground.


Resolution # 2
CARE
Let's resolve to care deeply
for one another.
2020 has left many
feeling fragile or broken.
Let's be kind with 
our words and our actions.

Let's look for ways 
to be a part of the 
healing that our 
nation desperately needs.

Resolution # 3
CONNECT
Let's resolve to connect
with others.
COVID-19 has left many
feeling isolated and alone.
Let's look for ways to 
connect with 
our friends, 
our family, 
our neighbors.
Let's also find ways to connect 
with new people 
and with different voices.  
Let's work to forge 
new connections
and build new bridges 
in our community. 

Finally, 
let's remember that
each moment in
2021
is a new 
opportunity
to 
think purple
and to
act purple.


2021...

It's a new year.
A new beginning.

Can we imagine a new US?
A purple US?

Let's try together.
