During these times, it is more important than ever to be kind to each other.
It is crucial to be there for one another.
If there is ever a time of need, it is now.

The past few days have been hard.
I was crying because I was sad, and I was frustrated at my inability to figure things out.
Some days are harder than the others, and that day was especially hard.
She was shaking and sobbing with her eyes mostly closed.
I put her on my lap and looked at her face and told her, Youre okay.
Youre going to be okay.
After about 10 minutes, she started to calm down and looked at me with tears in her eyes.
She was not crying anymore but she was still sad.
She was unhappy with what had happened, and she was frustrated because she could explain the cause.
She needed a reminder that in her moment of weakness, she had someone there for her.
And that is what we all need sometimes.
Knowing we have someone we can depend on can change how we view the world.
Our days have been harder, and adjusting to new changes can be tough.
We fear for our health and the health of our loved ones.
We worry about our financial security.
We blame the government and our destiny for how things are.
I remind you to hey take the time to be patient with each other.
The truth is that we are strong, and we have the ability to make ourselves okay.
It is about adapting to what is, rather than holding on to what used to be.
We may not realize it, but sometimes we need someone else to tell us what we already know.
We are here to comfort each other through this horrible time.
We are here to help each other heal.
