Welcome to Connect FCS Ed. I'm so glad that you're back, thank you so much for listening. I'm your host Barbara Scully and thank you so much for listening. So, now we can officially say hindsight is 2020, and a quote that I came across as I was composing my family's Christmas holiday newsletter was, life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forward. We have been living in the forward this whole past year. We have been living life in the fast lane as well as learning on the fly. We have gone from the fear zone, where grabbing food, toilet paper and medications that you don't need, and emotions spread related to fear and anger. Getting mad easily. That's the fear zone. Then we went into the learning zone where we were able to start identifying emotions, become aware of situations and think how to act. We've been able to evaluate information before spreading something false, and most importantly, recognize that we've all been trying to do our best. Let us move forward into the growth zone where thinking of others and figuring out how to help them live in the present and focus on the future.

Ready? Let's get started...
