Tree Frogs & Returning Geese–New Life & Return to Familiar Emerge Despite COVID Bleakness

April 4, 2020 by Lisa Gigliotti No Comments

A Cacophony of Life

While aspects of the world experience COVID-19 illness and death,
the croaks of a thousand newly-hatched tree frogs eager for the life that awaits them and
the honks of a gaggle of geese glad for the return to the comfort of their summer environs,
remind me that also around the globe new life emerges and
there will be a grateful return to the comfort of familiar life.

Let us touch the lonely and suffering at this time

March 30, 2020 by Lisa Gigliotti No Comments

My all-time fav Mother Teresa quote is:

“Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.”

Day after day Mother Teresa personally encountered an unyielding number of poor, sick and unwanted. Yet, she relentlessly extended bodily and figurative touch through her deep well of compassionate love, returning to God when needing to replenish her cache of goodness. At this time of global illness and isolation, let us heed her call to see and touch the lonely, suffering and unwanted all around us, by whatever means we are able.

Mother Teresa sharing love and bringing hope

Capital Area Opioid & Pain Conference “Opioids: Engaging Our Community in the New Reality”

February 4, 2020 by Lisa Gigliotti No Comments

Inaugural Opioid and Pain Conference focused on engaging the community with innovative strategies to manage pain and collaborative initiatives to combat the opioid crisis. I am grateful to facilitate two panels important to me: 1) State of-the-art approaches to managing pain without narcotics, and 2) Recovery-oriented criminal justice efforts which can foster not just an absence of criminal behavior but help to restore a human being to a fully functional life. Tomorrow at Michigan State University.
