All We (Can) Do

By Jadan Anderson, MC ‘22. Jadan is majoring in Economics.

We were all in the middle of something before safety mandates effectively put a sort-of stop to it. Before being confined to our (makeshift) homes and government-issued twelve-foot-wide bubbles of space, we were planning concerts and vacations and summer plans. We were sacrificing sleep to marginally more polished essays and extracurricular loves. We were building relationships. The world beyond Yale was doing the same: planning, building, sacrificing. And though some of these doings have merely changed in the medium through which they are being done, we have all experienced sunk costs of time, sleep, mental and emotional energy.

The Vicar

By Bella Gamboa, JE ‘22. Bella is majoring in Humanities.

He is quite the picture of unexamined and undisrupted routine — small habits and complacency define his days — and unengaged faith. And there are times when even those who are active in faith, unlike the Vicar, fall into complacency, in our daily lives and in our relationships with God.

A Little More Than Lukewarm

By Jadan Anderson, MC ‘22. Jadan is majoring in Economics.

And Also With You

By Jason Lee, TD ‘22. Jason is majoring in Global Affairs.

When I say “I do not want to lose you,” entwined with this terror is the fearful and therefore selfish desire to keep the other as I know them, to confine them to this space where I know how to best love them and from which I know they can continue to love me. And since God is love, what I am saying is this: I am sure that God is here. I fear He will not be where we are going.

Being Home When Home is Hard

By Daniel Chabeda, ES ‘22. Daniel is majoring in Chemistry.

Home is not always the Promised Land. Home can be a collection of new challenges for students to contend with: maintaining academic motivation, adjusting to a new work environment, and continuing social interactions with peers to name a few. Some challenges are even deeper–abusive parents, psychologically triggering scenes, loneliness–and can turn the intended place of solace into a land of sour milk and honey. For me, home has been an environment of family tension, emotional strain, and spiritual temptation, an environment where I was far from my family and God. In writing this article, I assume that many of you can relate.
