What If I Could Change the World?
The world is under a microscope and defined by the mathematics of a virus. Doors once open are closed, between countries and people distanced from each other and realities once unquestionable.
But never think for a second that we are powerless. We never have been and never will be. We choose our reactions, our mindset, our resolve. We decide if the suffering from any challenge is in vain.

As part of our WS Cares reminder, consider what it’s like not to have a home to quarantine in. With the rise in unemployment and families struggling to make ends meet, search your local community outreach programs to donate or offer help.
Stay energized, prayerful and positive every day, and be inspired by the positive stories of people changing history for the better.
Artfully yours,
Rose and the WomanScape Team
