I normally use these posts to write about something I’ve recently discovered that might make my readers think about an issue in the news or a long-standing problem that we face.Thanks for reading The Dot Connecters!
Regina. First, Susan Cain's book on introverts is a must read, though I'm less introverted than I think because I've had to spend the bulk of my career in front of classes and other largish groups of humans. Second, I'm hoping that we will return to face-to-face (and other things) with a new understanding of what it means to be human in the light of the pandemic and everything else. I see glimmers of hope. But only glimmers.
Chip, I love this piece. I've been in Rotary a bit longer than a decade and I'm thrilled to hear you've found a home in a club you love! That is invaluable. The work of Rotary is pretty incredible. Thanks for sharing your experience and for being my friend!!!
The reference to “my inner hermit” sparked in me a realization that I have adapted to being in an introverting state. I wonder if being face-to-face will return to what it was before the shift was imposed upon us.

If you are still,looking for a club, this could be it. We are off to South Carolina tomorrow. I’ll be in touch on rotary/peace when we get back.
