Dear Friends,
Today, let's talk about chimera.
It may conjure images of a fire-breathing, mythical creature, an amalgamated snake-goat-lion. (Yes, that's quite an image, and scary at that.). But, join me for a moment to consider the options of such mixing.
For example, the penumbra of the monkey-human joint venture. Curious? Two distinct lineages of embryo, part-human, part-monkey ...
Or, the French tacos (see also transformer le gras en or + l'histoire culinaire). Divinely gluttonous, perhaps with a necessary side of wellness (think squats and presses) for good measure.
A farther stretch mayhaps, does the mythic of chimera emerge via the political CEO?
The illusory nature of chimera is intriguing.
Anchoring to our livelihood, is it chimera for disputes lawyers to have effective but difficult conversations at work? Are we ready for radical transparency?
As we begin the slow march through sludge, I share a small plea for patience and grace. Let neither vulnerability nor ferocious strength be our chimera. We can do it better together as we emerge from sequestration. And to that end, I sincerely look forward to seeing you beyond Zoom.
Stay safe. Stay well. Stay sane.
NYIAC and I remain at your disposal. If we can be of service, drop an email.
Ever yours,
Rekha
