It Doesn’t Have To Take A Pandemic For Us To Care.

I believe that goodness and compassion are the core of who we are and who we can be.  It shouldn’t have taken a pandemic for that to happen. It shouldn’t take a pandemic for us to care about our neighbors. It shouldn’t take a pandemic for us to be concerned about the least of those. It shouldn’t take a pandemic for us to reassess the economic structure of this nation and how it benefits very few at the top and tramples on the many at the bottom. It shouldn’t take a pandemic for us to be the village. It shouldn’t take a pandemic for us to care. 

But sometimes things are turned upside down for us to put them right side up again.
