Hieroglyphic Memories 

Stephanie Godoy

From the 1920’s alcohol prohibition, the women’s suffrage movement, the dissipation of segregated schools, to the invention of the internet and iPhones–society has come a long way since the last pandemic in 1918. Now, as Covid-19 survivors, we have the liberty to plant new seeds during our modern renaissance. After massive death, comes rebirth. Our future is built upon our past hardships and delights. What lessons from the past will we take into the future? How will we keep our bodies healthy enough to participate in society in a progressive manner? With foods such as rosemary, onions and cloves we can equip our bodies with vitality to move forward as we begin to rebuild. The family unit is where the biggest change can occur. The values and manners we set forward within the unit will determine the outcome of the reshaping of society in a post pandemic world.
