Good morning!

Welcome to our first day together. How’d you sleep?

I thought I should start this journey with a quote. Something deep and poignant. Maybe a poem, a spiritual observation, some wisdom from the elders to set us on our path while simultaneously impressing you with my literary prowess.

But what’s really giving me joy today is this 2,000-person choir singing ABBA’s “Dancing Queen.”

You are not alone. So crank up the volume and get singing.

Until tomorrow,

Clara


p.s. If you need an extra respite, step further back in time and admire the cinematic masterpiece that is the original “Dancing Queen” video.

p.p.s. Know someone who could use a daily respite? Feel free to share.

Ah, people pulling together for the good of ABBA. Respite, indeed.

God Bless you, Clara for giving us this "daily respite". I just reading Mar. 9 and feel so MUCH better already!
