The Defiant Tenderness of Surrender
"There are so many courageous people just making breakfast in the morning, going
to work, taking care of their families, trying to do online teaching. Holy God.
I mean, I just wish there was a cosmic scorekeeper for all of the billions of
people doing their everyday acts of courage. I suspect that what we're looking
at in the sky at night aren't stars, they are evidence and markers of all those
courageous acts that happened earlier in the day."
In this insightful and delightfully human conversation, artist Pat Benincasa, and tech leader Sonesh Surana discuss how the era of COVID has dramatically changed our context, necessitated shape-shifting, and spurred us to embrace the power of small acts, and embody the defiant tenderness of surrender.
