MESSAGE FROM CATHERINE



Dear John,



Earlier this year when we first started sheltering in place, my daughter took out her markers and wrote on pieces of paper, “We’re All In This Together.” She and my son proudly taped those to our front windows conveying a message of hope and unity.







Yesterday, President-Elect Joe Biden addressed the nation in a Thanksgiving Eve address urging unity, empathy, and love. He stated, “We don’t talk much about love in our politics. The public arena is too loud, too angry, too heated. To love our neighbors as ourselves is a radical act, yet it’s what we are called to do. And we must try, for only in trying, only in listening, only in seeing ourselves bound together in what Dr. King called a ‘mutual garment of destiny’ can we rise above our divisions and truly heal.”



This truly resonated with me. I am grateful for the opportunity to keep trying to work with everyone to address the issues our city faces, to listen to all those with different points of view, and to focus on what unites us instead of what divides us.



Most of all, I am grateful that I get to do this with you and for the support I’ve received over the years that has allowed me to continue to be of service. Thank you!



I know this year has been so tough and focusing on gratitude has helped me through. In what has been a time of despair, I have so much hope that we will pull through this together and for that, I am truly grateful.



From the bottom of my heart, have a very happy and safe Thanksgiving.



Warm regards,



Catherine
