During this unprecedented time of crisis, there are many people that are helping others breathe a little easier. Some are the obvious front lines – the medical doctors, nurses, and all their supporting staff that are helping the sick and the dying. Many are exhausted, overwhelmed, and risking their lives every day. Some helpers are not as obvious but just as important in making sure the infrastructure stays strong and humming along nicely, such as the person picking up my garbage or those that make sure my house has electricity, gas, and clean water. And then there are those that help brighten and bring optimism into our days, like the kids that draw nice things on the sidewalk with the chalk or stories of individuals helping other individuals. Every single one of those people deserve a thanks for doing their part in this global crisis. Below, I’ve listed out few of the wonderful people who are fighting for lives and happiness. Send me an email if you think of others that deserve a big hug and a thank you!
