Why we must keep hope alive as we close the year 2020

There is no doubt that, across the globe, 2020 has been perhaps the most difficult year in history. Thus, as we come to the close of this year, every one of us can only hope that 2021 will be better. Yet, considering the impact of the ever-mutating Covid-19 virus, the prospects are quite low.

Projections for economic recovery have been quite modest in many sectors as new lockdowns are imposed by many countries, especially in the developed world. This means it will be a while before the world can fully recover to pre-Covid levels. Yet, amid this grim picture, we must keep hope alive – especially in the context of the just celebrated Christmas season.
