United We Stand, Divided We Fall

Panic breaks loose. Fear sets in. What am I to do???

Frustration swells. Patience is lost with all. This is just one big overreaction!!!

Flip a coin and see which team you will join.

OR

Take a step back, 6 feet or so, and meditate. Join hearts, not hands, with your community. We are one.

Erica Olson is a medical student at UAMS.
