It’s been really overwhelming both online and IRL. But you have to work with what God wants us to do in this time. Family time, prayers, working out, conversations with friends online, my pets and the passion projects I can continue at home help keep me going. Also doing what I can to help spread news about donation drives in this time of need for our less fortunate friends in the community.

Sometimes we tend to take for granted how blessed we truly are to have each other— to interact with, learn from, be inspired by, get good energy from and enjoy life with. You really don’t know how good you have it until it’s “taken away” from you.

Hold on to hope. There’s so much to look forward to. And

I’m sure there’s so much growth we’ve experienced through the slowness and stillness of community quarantine life amidst the chaos of this pandemic worldwide. Let’s apply what we’ve learned, appreciate each other even more and learn to really live life uninhibited, full of drive and a reignited sense of purpose.—JC
