Quarantine Reflections

Ideas come from unexpected moments of inactivity. The pandemic created lots of free time to ponder and wonder, and often the mind was plagued with thoughts. The inspiration came from Facebook's caption page, "What's on your mind?." Initially, it started as simple quotes, a few "likes" and comments, but grew into "Quarantine Reflections." The editing and photography for the book was done by my son, Jordan who had just finished a study abroad program at Osaka University, Japan, and graduated with a B.A. from University of California, Riverside. It was a great way of inculcating the values of engagement, resilience, and vision. The pandemic has brought the toughest challenge in a generation, but has also brought the greatest stories of heroism, resiliency, camaraderie, and human dependency. As you ponder on the various thoughts in this book, it is hoped you will find, feel, and dwell on the things that influence us as humans, or the mantras to build character, integrity, and passion. The charge is to seize every opportunity in life as a call to make a difference.
