Cuantificando Lo Esencial by Sandy

"Para mí, no se puede hablar de este tema sin matizar la conversación. Al escribir esta pieza, quise honrar la manera específica en la cual mi familia ha navegado la pandemia y a la vez tomar nota de los privilegios que existen en nuestra situación. Mi meta fue escribir algo que pudiera destacar las prácticas cotidianas que se volvieron rituales en mi familia durante este tiempo, con el fin de personalizar este momento de cris global que estamos viviendo colectivamente.

[For me, tackling this topic felt like a really nuanced task. I wanted to make sure that I honored the specific ways my family has navigated the pandemic while also acknowledging the privilege existing in our situation. Ultimately, my goal with this piece was to highlight the daily practices my family ritualized in an effort to personalize the global health crisis we are experiencing collectively.]" -Sandy
