On Friday morning, Hanna will be going straight to the heart of our global theme, Acceptance—drawing from her life to reflect on acceptance of her nearing death.
“The experience of my dying body and my world ending is not unique. At this very moment many bodies are dying and many worlds are ending. I don’t want to be dying right now, or live in a world with so much devastation, but here we are. What am I called to do? How am I called to live?” – Hanna du Plessis
