5 Hopeful Messages To Spread During Quarantine

 


This has been one year of a month, and we still have another day to go before April. Unfortunately it looks like we’ll have even longer to go before we’re done flattening the curve, with projections saying it’ll take a few weeks to reach the peak in New York City alone. So we’d thought we’d quick share five inspirational and hopeful quotes to get us all through this, enjoy!
