Today is the first day I haven’t had a Zoom meeting or class, and I have loads of “homework” from three of them. I celebrated after my last Zoom meeting, a travel writing group I’ve been attending for almost two years, by watching a movie—The Goldfinch, based on a book by Donna Tartt that I read a few years ago. I loved the book, but it didn’t make a very good movie. But I was moved by the last scene, where the protagonist finds that the painting he stole from the Metropolitan Museum when he was 12 years old was found, and along with it many other stolen masterpieces, including a Rembrandt. “See,” says Boris, the drug-dealing friend of Theo, “Good can come from bad.” It seemed so à propos for today. I’m in the phase of this pandemic where I’m now looking for the good that can come from this. The stepping stone that I initially saw as a stumbling block. The hope one can see when before there was only hopelessness. -
