The Sun Will Shine Again

A lot is going on in the world in which we live. The Coronavirus has now traveled around the globe, disrupting travel plans and canceling annual events. More importantly, the virus is killing thousands of people with a fury that is causing people to panic in ways I have never before seen.

Before the Coronavirus, it was hard for me to conceive something like this happening. Some movies and books tell the story of catastrophic disasters happening. The films and books paint the picture of how one accident or intentional act by a vengeful person deters the course of life for others and disrupts the world in which we live. After I finish the book or movie, I am left with an uneasiness, but then my thoughts are interrupted by my actual reality, bringing me back to life.

The truth is that there are some uncertain times that we are on the brink of facing, that many people are not prepared to see. That is what I believe is the scariest thing of this all.

How do you prepare for danger? How do you prepare for uncertainty and instability? These are all questions I have asked myself and presume that Dispatch readers are figuring out too. I know we may not be equipped to deal with the things we will soon face, but it is no different from the struggles of years past. When I read history books, they tell stories of tragedies and events that reshape our lives. The truth is we have no choice but to ride the wave. As we ride the wave, we have to keep our spirits high, follow instructions as recommended by experienced healthcare, and plan for the future we wish to see.

One thing I see for sure and that is the sun will shine again!
