Hopefully, this terrible outbreak triggers something more than a response to go out and buy toilet paper. How and why this outbreak has happened is not as important as how you will react. Remember to stay calm and to make use of all your resources. What have you learned about adversity in your life? If you are reading this then the most relevant thing you learned is that you will survive.
Of course, the initial response might be, I hope I don't get it. One might pay attention to their exposure to germs and up their immune defense. Those are both good ideas.
It is also considerate to limit your exposure to others so as not to unknowingly pass it on.
The second response might be one of fear. It would seem the world is shutting down and financial collapse is imminent. Remember that fear is only a distraction and start to think creatively. So what if it does? Have you ever had a business fail or lost a job or something dear? What did you do? Most likely you rebuilt your business, started something new or found a job that suited you better.
The third response might be, when will it end?
To this I say - tragedy is finite and it will end.
I have the deepest compassion for those who are suffering and I send out Love to comfort those in a time of need. Be brave, be strong and please be kind and loving.
