Imagine the chessboard of life, where each of us represents a different piece. Some may hold positions of power and influence, while others may feel like mere pawns in the game. But as the game progresses and eventually ends, something quite significant happens. The distinctions between these roles blur, and we're again left with the essence of our shared humanity.
In this analogy, the king, queen, and pawns all symbolize the various roles and hierarchies we encounter in life. However, these roles eventually lose that significance. What truly matters is the journey we've shared, the lessons we've learned, and the connections we've formed along the way.
Regardless of whether you've been a king, a queen, or a humble pawn simply navigating the board, we all return to the same box. The ultimate equalizer—the realization that underneath our titles and positions, we are all equally deserving of love, respect, and understanding.
It's a reminder to embrace empathy, compassion, and unity, recognizing that each person, regardless of their status or role, contributes to our collective experience. Honor our diversity, celebrate our shared journeys, and strive to create a world where everyone feels valued and respected.

1mo“Great nations don’t ignore their most painful moments. They don’t ignore those moments of the past. They embrace them. Great nations don’t walk away. We come to terms with the mistakes we made. And in remembering those moments, we begin to heal and grow stronger.” -- Joe Biden, 2021. This is when Juneteenth was created as a federal holiday. This may be taken as a political statement, and I will strongly argue it is not. This is simply righting a wrong that has lingered and I am proud to be a part of a company that recognizes that.
