We are grappling with daily news of deaths by the thousands. Keeping hope and optimism alive during these hard times demands a lot from us. But then I come across efforts like John Krasinski’s Some Good News and so many more like that around the world. Inspiring stories are pouring in from all over the globe as the world is uniting against a common enemy.

Our character is put to the true test when we are faced with a hard situation, be it a personal tragedy or a global pandemic. These times bring out both the best and the worst of humanity. It is up to us to decide.
