'Lockdown': A Poem By Brother Richard Hendrick

"All over the world people are slowing down and reflecting. All over the world people are looking at their neighbours in a new way. All over the world people are waking up to a new reality – To how big we really are. To how little control we really have. To what really matters. To Love," writes Brother Richard Hendrick, a Capuchin Franciscan living in Ireland. Originally posted on Facebook on March 13th, the poem possibly went as viral as Covid-19. As of this writing, it has been shared and re-posted over 34,000 times, striking a chord with so many and mirroring humanity's boundless capacity to love.
