“You become what you surround yourself with. Energies are contagious. Choose carefully. Your environment will become you.” Author and artist Tamara Kulish’s philosophical words regarding uplifting takes on life recently struck a chord within me.
Although much of our “environment” this school year was not by choice, the choice was within the “energies” that powered the grid here at Brearley. The positively kind energies of the administration, colleagues, and students is contagious and has become me. And I consider this not a small, but big win to be celebrated.
