WATCH:5 reasons we love Michelle Obama...
These past few weeks have been scary and difficult for many of us, she writes. We just dont have a roadmap for what were currently experiencingthat in and of itself can bring up feelings of anxiety, loneliness, and fear. Not to mention the worry we feel about the health and safety of our parents, children, and loved ones and the financial security of so many families.
She continues: Whatever youre going through right now, I want you to know you arent alone.

Even through the logistics of social distancing (1.5m at all times, folks), Michelle stresses this new normal is something were all navigating together.

But this is by no means an exhaustive list!
