Events
You can create any type of personal event or universal event. If you're social distancing, consider posting inclusive, activity-oriented events in which others can participate or take action from wherever they are.
Your events can be group actions or acted on individually. They can celebrate anyone or anything, present or past, that matters most to you. Events can inspire collective community action. Events are always opportunities to refocus guests on the positive values we share in common.
So get creative. If your event is thoughtful, it will distinguish you. If it's popular, it may spur unity among diverse groups and help heal the divide. It will also add more fun, enrichment, and positivity to the world.
