I really enjoy these quarterly reports. In a life that is so day-to-day, crisis-to-crisis, it is an opportunity for me to take stock of the last three months and dream about the next few months.

In December, I participated in Rauhnächte — a ritual where you burn an intention for the new year on the winter solstice and for 11 days after. I had so many good intentions. Then January hit.
