We are as involved in adaptations because of the COVID-19 pandemic, just as you are. In addition to all of the preparations and tough realities that we are hearing from all over the country and the world, there are many beautiful stories that are energizing, also. Here is my favorite so far.
A young 20-something gal was going into a grocery store when she heard someone calling to her. She turned and saw a women gesturing to her from inside a car. She went over and came upon an elderly couple inside their car.
The woman told her that they needed supplies from the store but they were afraid to go in. They had been waiting outside for 45 minutes hoping to see someone who might help them. At that moment she cracked the car window and slipped out a grocery list and a $100 bill. Would she get these groceries for them?
She went into the store, shopped for them and took the groceries out to their car. They were overcome with gratitude.When she went home and told her boyfriend he insisted that she tell others because, he said, all of us need to be aware of others and help our neighbors, especially the most vulnerable. Amen!
Stay well, everybody. Help others. Keep in touch.
