Thank you for helping us nurture a calm and safe space

The meaningfulness of human existence is based upon the uniqueness and singularity of the human person. 
Life never ceases to put new questions to us, never permits us to come to rest.
Every hour makes new deeds necessary and new experiences possible.

– Viktor Frankl, The Doctor and the Soul (1955)
