It's over a year now since our lives were changed forever, by the unannounced visit of COVID-19. While many people felt the heat, I am of the opinion that teachers were the most hit.

It may appear that all is now well and we may as well get our dancing shoes out in gratitude to God. But that would be a very wrong move.

In life, it usually is not about the things that happen to us, but what we do with the lessons those things pass. It matters that we understand the exact lessons from the lockdown that greeted the nation last year, hold them dear to heart, and let them drive us to better choices going forward.
