When the world around us seems doom and gloom, and this is all it has been these past two months, it’s hard as ever to keep those spirits up.

Forbes suggests limiting your news intake and choosing a single news source. Another great tip is looking back to the past. Think of all the hard times we've been through, from 9/11 to the 2008 financial crisis, and tell yourself you made it.

Forbes list also suggests “taking advantage of found time,” “supporting your local favorite businesses,” “sending gifts in the mails.” It’s also a perfect moment to practice random acts of kindness as seen in this post. The heroes who don’t wear capes are people just like you and me, and if we can learn something from them is that it doesn’t take whole lot to do good.

Commuters Wiped Away Anti-Semitic Graffiti They Found On A Subway Train. Within About Two Minutes, All The Symbolism Was Gone
"I got on the subway in Manhattan tonight and found a swastika on every advertisement and every window. The train was silent as everyone stared at each other, uncomfortable and unsure what to do.
One guy got up and said, "Hand sanitizer gets rid of Sharpie. We need alcohol." He found some tissues and got to work.
I've never seen so many people simultaneously reach into their bags and pockets looking for tissues and Purel."

A Hero Can Be Anyone, No Special Powers Needed
Wanted to give a shout-out to this girl. No idea who she is, but we are in Wrigleyville on the rooftop of Old Crow Smokehouse. There was a blind Cubs fan trying to hail a cab for several minutes until the lady came up and asked him if he needed help hailing a cab. She stood there with him until one pulled up. Awesome to see such kindness in a world that the media portrays so much hate in. Share freely in hopes that her kindness spreads.
