In a pond of tragedy, jump off a diving board

April 28: By the end of March, calls to US helplines had jumped by 891%. As this mental health crisis grows, I find my own balance being tested daily. And, while I like to think of myself as an optimist, lately I cannot help but feel pessimistic. I know there is so much we could (and should) be learning from this experience, but I fear there is going to be a total “land grab” of greed — every man for himself — when life resumes. A month ago I read an amazing article sharing an interesting perspective on this. Hope you’ll take a moment to read it, and in the meantime I will try hard to remain positive and continue to stand strong for what I know is right.
