I think one of the things we have to keep in mind is that the world has always been in turmoil and people kept finding ways to enjoy life. We are here now for such a time as this and so we apply the same approach as those before us. We watch and we pray but at the same time, we continue to have gratitude as things in our lives continue to work out. Despite what's going on around us, God knows the outcomes and what's in store for our personal lives. There is such a thing as thriving in spite of -- as a matter of fact, that's the truest testament to the presence of God. As you have stated, joy is indeed resistance. Let us lean on each other during these times indeed.
