Delta said twenty-one injured people were taken to local hospitals; nineteen were released by the next morning. Three had critical but non-life-threatening injuries, one of whom was a child. However, there were no fatalities. We live in a world filled with alarming headlines and endless updates, often leaving us overwhelmed and powerless. But what if the key to real change lies not in fixing everything—but in focusing on the work uniquely meant for you?
