“The woman who sold bracelets by the river thought that it was the heartbeat at the center of the world, that bright, boiling place she had fallen through on her way to the city. ‘As for this reporter,’ the article concluded, ‘I hold with the majority. I have always suspected that the thumping sound we hear is the pulse of those who are still alive. The living carry us inside them like pearls. We survive only so long as they remember us.’”

As of this morning, over 288,000 people in Mexico have died from Covid-19, BUT the country is reporting a 95% vaccination rate – which means it is time once again to celebrate lives well lived. Click here for last year’s post.
