Sheltering at home for the better good of mankind is shifting our perspectives to focus on what is most precious in life- our health and our family.

Family support is more critical now than ever and yet we're being asked to celebrate Easter, Passover, or Ramadan together but apart. These spring holidays remind us of rebirth and growth, like the symbolic egg on the seder plate or in an Easter basket. Just like the egg does when boiled and under pressure, it hardens and gets stronger. This is an opportunity for self-awareness and introspection, like spring itself, a gift to have faith there is beauty and light to come.

In an effort to help us cope and find hope, I've collected 50 silver linings from friends, family, news articles, essays, tweets, and large Facebook communities to share with you all. Listen to find inspiration and optimism, a gift like finding the hidden matzo (afikomen) or a jeweled Easter egg.
