The COVID-19 pandemic has been a tale of two halves.
For some, it’s been a year filled with unprecedented uncertainty, change and challenge. For others, it’s been a year that has shown us the power of community spirit, demonstrated our resilience, and showcased the unwavering strength of our healthcare services and workers.
Just like the popular fables from our childhoods, there’s an important moral to be learned from this story we’ve all been living through: No matter how bad a situation may seem, the optimist within us can choose to believe that something good can come from facing adversity. A silver lining.
