Writer’s Note: The title of this piece is ripped from Aaron Sorkin, who often used it to help recap seasons and series of the shows he wrote. It has always served as a phrase that reminded me to step back, reflect, and be thankful for where I am and who is around me. I hope that each and every one of you have a similar reminder.
First and foremost, I hope this doesn’t come off as haughty, or that it feels like I’m puffing myself up, because that isn’t the intent of a piece like this.
