Unlike every other pandemic to sweep the earth in our lifetime, Coronavirus seems to be giving us an education. Confined to our homes, we get a chance to process things with a mind clear of rush, anxiety and unnecessary workloads. And what do we see? Our mothers toiling in the kitchen. Our grandparents looking for a conversation. Our siblings searching for a playmate. Our fathers worrying themselves out of their minds. Even our neighbors, with a plethora of their own needs. Remember that superheroes don't exist, until we will them to.
Be a helping hand, a supportive shoulder, a friendly smile, a willing ear, for this might be the only chance you get. Thus, when this pandemic blows over and you walk out of your homes, cherish the thought that you gave somebody a reason to smile. ๐
