In the midst of all the anxiety I am choosing to think about all the powerful transformations that could come out of this. I know there is a lot of bad news, so I am choosing to see and imagine some good news. #COVID19 #DisruptiveTransformation

This moment is a great time to ask yourself - what things in my life need to be disrupted? What do I want to do differently that I now have the time to focus on. Disruption can create positive transformation if we focus on things that matter. #OutbreakTransformation

Gospel: Today Jesus offers us the Parable of the Prodigal Son (Lk 15). As Henri Nouwen reminded us, while we may at times behave like the younger son (selfish) and feel like the elder son (self-righteous), we are actually called to act like the father (with mercy and compassion).

“I want so badly to forget that it makes me cry. I wish for just one day, for one hour, or even a single moment, I could be free of the memories; I wish I could feel like what happened to me never occurred; I wish I could erase it all and have a few hours of precious peace.”

Mathematician. Leader. Heroine.
Katherine Johnson not only helped calculate the trajectories that took our Apollo astronauts to the Moon — she was champion for women and minorities in the space program and the world as a whole. We honor her memory today. go.nasa.gov/2HPnx31
ALT Before microchips, before electronic calculation, before nanosecond data processing, the human brain deciphered the most difficult numeric equations. In NASA's early years that meant flesh-and-blood computers, mathematically gifted individuals tasked with analysis and verification of complex aerospace data. Among NASA's human computers, today one of the most recognized is Katherine Johnson.
