#braveheart inspired Singaporeans to write notes of encouragement to healthcare workers for Valentine’s Day.
More than 7000 notes were sent in by the public.
But the real work was to address the problem of anxiety.
“Anxiety makes us have thoughts like ‘there is not going to be enough food, so let’s buy six trolleys of groceries’, ‘four masks are not enough’ and ‘this train is dangerous because someone here is wearing a medical uniform’.
This anxiety is what we need to address. It’s okay to be anxious for your family but we need to find a more sustainable way forward.”
