We are all sharing a collective experience right now in the time of Covid-19. It is scary, it is uncertain, it is overwhelming, it is exhausting, and it is a rollercoaster. I've struggled to make sense of this experience myself and when I came across this interview of David Kessler in the Harvard Business Review, I found comfort, insight, and most importantly, hope. Kessler describes this collective experience as grief, and provides a very clear conceptualization of how what we are all going through resembles the six stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, sadness, acceptance, and meaning-making. He also provides helpful tips for coping with this grief and concludes with a hopeful and helpful reminder that this is temporary and we are more resilient than we think.

Well, we have different emotions that can be bothering in the middle of this pandemic. Most of us are fearful because we don't know if we are safe enough or if this will end anytime soon. I am sure that people around the world are worried and have been battling with anxiety. But we should never give up on this battle. What we need to do is to believe and think that we can get through this at the right time. God is in control of everything.
