At times of perceived rapid and significant change, such as the world has experienced with the current COVID-19 pandemic, the unrepeatable ebb and flow of the paradoxical rhythms inherent in humanuniverse patterning seem to come to the forefront of awareness. What was previously known and familiar seemingly disintegrated in the emergence of the unfamiliar experience of a global quarantine. While difficulties abounded across the discipline of nursing, these challenges created new opportunities for visioning anew in thinking beyond the restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic. A challenge is presented to nurse administrators and faculty charged with preparing the next generation of nurses to meet the challenges of an unknowable future by thinking beyond the traditional boundaries of classroom and clinic to co-create new ways of living the teaching-learning mission of nurse education programs.
