Finding balance between joy and pain can be complicated. Must they be separate? Or, can the co-exist? Today, Suleika shows us they can co-exist.
While preparing to accompany her partner, Jon Batiste, along the Red Carpet to The Oscars - to celebrate with him his music contribution (and hands) to the nominated animated film, “Soul” - she asks us to email a letter of support for our fellow Isolation Journalist, Quin, in hopes of changing his execution conviction to a “life in prison“ sentencing.
In a sense we are celebrating two lives today. Both men offering joy and comfort in their own unique way. Both men are teaching us how to be compassionate human beings.
Both men remind us we can live with pain and joy, through art, writing, music, and most importantly, connectedness.
Thank you, Suleika, for bringing both these stories together for us today.
I have signed the petition and I am counting the hours to watch The Oscars. May both men win!
I'm doing the 30 day challenge with a friend right now, and just read this comment Pat. What a beautiful perspective you have - "both men offering joy and comfort in their own unique way. Both men are teaching us how to be compassionate human beings." Thank you for those words of wisdom. <3 Truly stopped me in my tracks.
I am sending my letter to Quin via diplomatic bag from Uzbekistan today. I hope it makes it to him in time, and I hope even more for a stay of execution. Thank you, Suleika, for letting us know about this.

Thank you, Louise. Suleika continues to introduce me to new people and new perspectives.
A 30 day challenge can do the same. All the best.
Signed and shared and will send a letter to Lil’ GQ.
