    To help your family/ parents/ spouse in any way. To help them out in household work. Making them comfortable.

  • Mary Cromer Kelly

    I will make the bed for Trêve. I will take roses to my neighbors and check in on them. I will be kind to the people working at Costco. I will text Sandie as she’s having her colonoscopy today.

    Today, a kind word, a kind gesture

    Call someone who you know is under duress from the Corona Virus situation and offer them some empathy.

  • Ose

    To send a message to a dear friend, wishing her strength and faith in a very difficult situation she will have to face tomorrow and to be there for her. I pray that love may guide and protect her.

    I will bring comfort and joy to friends and family when I return their phone calls today. I’ve been feeling overwhelmed by phone and email messages from caring friends and haven’t responded to their messages. I needed solitude for reflection and self-care during the quarantine. Now I am ready to respond which is a way I can show my affection for them.

    I am mentoring two girls for their study plan and by sending them some notes about how they can improve, or books they should read, I can bring joy to them. I have a close friend, he is studying overseas. We always share things together. By telling him how much I appreciate his presence, I can bring joy to him. I have sent an interesting video to some of my friends whom I thought would benefit from it. And it brought joy to them. So simple, just care and express your feelings towards wh...

    So simple, just care and express your feelings towards whom you love. And it brings happiness to them <3

    Since we are social distancing I will face time, call or text my friends to check on them.

  • Mica

    Joy might be a bit much to expect, but I hope I’ve brought bits of happiness to family and relatives by sending family members photos of the spider we caught at Easter yesterday and by sending relatives a photo of my friends’ grandkids hunting Easter eggs in many inches of snow.

  • Debra

    I am awakening to the joy of oneness with Spirit. I recognize that many people are suffering with Covid-19. I can hopefully bring some joy to others by reaching out and making contact today. I have a next door childhood girlfriend., whose husband has Coronavirus. I will pray for him and pray for my friend today.

  • Katrina

    Make a phone call, send a card, send a text with a photo, FaceTime, send birthday wishes to my daughter-in-law.

  • Ed Schulte
    Remind them (especially children) that, beyond all the Politicizing and pontificating, there are creative Beings making substantial progress to contain and correct the human made Covid-19 problems. Hopefully there will be a “lessons learned” review when things have settled down but the immediate objective is to show that there still some grown ups around!

    I am a psychologist providing services via telehealth. Today I will ask each of my clients to comment on the silver linings in their coronavirus experience and join in their their celebration of happiness.

    • Pilgrim

      A wonderful perspective/awareness to bring forward. Thank you for your service.

  • Donna
    This mandated stay at home order has opened my eyes to what life is like for many of our elderly shut-ins. I have more empathy for my 90 year old aunts who still live alone. What might I do to bring them joy? I could make them a homemade card expressing my love and mail it to them. When you are stuck inside, getting the mail each day is an adventure. I also could phone them. For my 88 year old Dad, who is sheltering with our household, I could sing a song with him, harmonizing the alto sections,...

Connecting brings joy to them and me!
