Someone tells you that they spent Saturday night in alone.

How do you respond?

If you are a parent who has been homeschooling for a year, you might be thinking ‘That sounds amazing!!’. If you have been living and working alone for a year and have a restricted network of support, it might fill you with dread.

One situation and two very different responses.

During COVID, we really have had to take time to understand individual circumstances and see the situation from someone else’s perspective. This is such crucial work and time well-spent.

I really hope that this mindset sticks with us – being curious to the experiences of others is always well invested.
