Traumatic times stir many questions in us. For example, how do we make sense of what is happening? How may we find our strength at a time like this? Perhaps the first question has no one correct answer. We could call it an act of God or find a reason in Science and politics. The attribution that gives us peace, is the attribution we can select. The second question can be answered more adequately. And to answer it we need to reflect upon previous life experiences. Ask yourself, what gave you strength in the past. Was it the support of loved ones, was it a connect with nature or was it taking care of yourself? The things that helped you in the past, are still the ones with strong potential to help you in the present. The one condition is that we remain willing to use these resources, as opposed to distancing ourselves from them. Its also easier to approach life during such times, when we engage with something that adds meaning to our existence. Famous psychiatrist Viktor Frankl said that one way in which meaning could be created in life was by ‘creating a work or doing a deed.’ During this time engaging in the task of educating young minds, hungry to learn and grow, may be a significant way of creating meaning. Education shall serve a particularly important purpose currently if teachers can infuse a sense of hope in children by providing the message that with patience and time and by being responsible towards our health, we can overcome this adversity.
