Personal aha moments during the COVID-19 pandemic:
There really IS such a thing as work-life balance.
Not all books on the bedside table need to be read word for word.

The profound truth that: we [can] boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us. (Romans 5:3-4)
