Loss, Hope and Growth

COVID-19 has added an extra element of turbulence to our already busy lives. In my mind an image emerged that projected a world that seemed to have (almost) come to a standstill due to the pandemic. Life, as we knew it, was somewhat paralysed and, if not totally, at least slowed down and diverted by unexpected changes that certainly evoke different levels of uncertainty, anguish, fear and anger, among others. I thought it would be interesting to reflect on this situation and its possible implications depending on the 'stage of life' we are in and how 'hard' this situation 'hits' each of us.
