In these very difficult days, I keep coming back to a simple question: What conduct do I want to be known for?

Religious folks sometimes frame this as asking how they will answer for their actions at the pearly gates - but we're all asking ourselves the same thing.

When the confusion, anger, and agony have passed, and we're left with what they've wrought, how will we make our peace with who we were & what we did in the thick of it all?

Our answers will differ.
But it's a good question to ask.
