stronger together slogan around somewhere. On the internet or maybe I heard it through
some televised advertisement. I’m honestly not sure. However, what I am certain
of is that though this phrase may sound cliché, it does convey observation we
cannot turn away from or ignore. All the challenges of Covid-19, the disease
that would try to ruin everything and everyone in contact. Abruptly, the whole
world stopped and everything was at a standstill. On a simple morning, I would
be sitting on Grandma’s front porch either alone or with someone else. I
started noticing how empty the highway would be. Hearing complete silence
outside was pretty strange to me, and I sometimes felt as if I were living in
another-time. Though I was used to isolation, the kind of isolation a pandemic
cause is vastly different. Sure, I could leave the house for a while. But I
couldn’t walk into any stores just yet. Food had to be picked up curb side.
However, COVID-19 could not stop us from serving. The way we have completed
community service activities went from seeing everyone face-to-face became
virtual events or required us to cut back on the amount of people we could
interact with in person.</span></p>

every chuckle, and every encouraging word, the impact we have is still noticed
