How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
Hope Springs Eternal The hospital is full, and we are holding patients in the emergency department. We had a brief decrease in COVID patients, but that did not last long. And it was a full moon. I came home from work one day and saw this flower blooming in my flower bed. It is the first spring bloom that I have seen this year. I live in the South, so it is not unusual to have flowers bloom early, especially if it has been a warm winter. For some reason, though, this caught me off guard. And I felt like crying. It's such a small thing, yet it had a huge impact on me. There is hope. Despite all that we have been through in the last year, there is always hope, and this is one way that God reminds us.

Imagine you’re talking to a couple of high school students in 2050. They ask, “How did the pandemic change the world as you knew it?” How do you think you would answer?
The pandemic changed everything, every second of every day was affected, from leaving the house and putting a mask on to not seeing loved ones in order to protect one another. It changed how we interact and how our politics killed hundreds of thousands of lives. It showed how one person became a cult leader of a political party at the expense of his citizens he was supposed to serve. It changed everyone I know, from all parts of the world. It changed me.
