Maria N. Papacosta: "It’s easier to embrace our fears when we realize that everyone is afraid. We are interconnected and we need each other's support. We can't go far alone. And by being kind, by helping other people, we're basically doing ourselves a favor because it makes us feel good. And of course, what goes around comes around. 

As a society in this modern era, we forget to be kind to each other. We forget that everybody has their own problems and concerns. The words we choose to say to ourselves and others are powerful. They can do harm or they can do good. 

COVID was a good example of waking up and realizing that what happens in China does not stay in China anymore. What we do or don’t do in our families ripples out into future generations. What we do in our neighborhood, city, state or country ripples out into the world. When it comes to the saying: ‘What’s good for me is good for the planet’ is slowly changing back to the indigenous understanding that ‘what’s good for the planet is good for me’.”
