Much has changed over the last month in New Jersey. The impact of the Coronavirus has caused the Governor of New Jersey, Phil Murphy, to issue a "Stay At Home" order to prevent the spreading of the virus. Living in the second hardest hit state, has made life extremely different. On March 30, 2020, as I drove around Eastampton, NJ, I have seen the impact COVID-19 has had on my hometown and state, it is like I am seeing everything in a brand new way. Streets that were once crowded with people are empty. Families are no longer at the parks, kids are no longer at school, businesses have shut down. Although, we are all suffering from this pandemic it is important that we take this important time to be reflect and thank all the essential employees who are risking their lives to help those in need. I believe we will get through this as a state and country as long as understand and follow the proper precautions of this pandemic.
