While there is a very real dark side to humanity as a whole.
But even in the worse of times "the image of God" shines in the actions of people everywhere.

People are helping elderly neighbors,
stores opening early and only for the elderly
neighborhoods touching base with each other to fine out who needs what.
Nurses and Drs a putting themselves at risk daily to help others.
Nat'l guard members off helping deliver food.
Putting out washrooms for homeless
the men and women who haven't taken off to continue to pick up our garbage.
and others doing various things to help small and large...

At home the whole street has added green paper to their windows. If it changes to red it’s means they require assistance, shopping, medication or transport. THIS IS AMAZING ��

Americans tend to come together during the worst of times. I just wish that folks would keep some of that together as things improve.

I have seen an outpouring of help out there in many different ways. Unfortunately I have seen a lot of greed too. Luckily the first is outweighing the second. From companies down to everyday citizens and neighbors, many are offering a helping hand to one another.

The sanitation folks as pointed out, our mail lady still is working daily, our stores around here are opening from 6am to 7:30am solely for the elderly for now. Lots of help and love going around for people that can barely get out!
