There is a lot of sadness and fear surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, and we see the worst of humanity during these circumstances. These hardships also allow us to see the best in humanity in terms of kindness and innovation, and as Dumbledore said, “Happiness can be found in the darkest times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
