In these crazy times, it can sometimes feel like there is nothing we can do to really affect the changes we would like to see in the world. If you watch or read the news, it can seem that there is just too much going wrong, and it’s all snowballing at a rapid pace. Whether it’s the pandemic, social injustice or climate change, the current problems can seem so awesomely huge that it makes one want to curl up in a ball under the covers and wait for the world to end. But we must remember that many, many people before us have survived great trials and tribulations.
