It was one of the hardest years in our memories. More than 1.8 million people died from Covid in 2020; more than half of Americans know someone who was hospitalized or died from the virus. Nearly everyone's life was upended, and it was often the little things that kept us going. CNN documents several people's experiences of the little things that kept them going: One woman's coping strategy was helping others; another's was to document her loneliness in her paintings; a man read long novels and watched movies to distract himself; and a woman battled through a job loss and anxiety through singing. The singer said, It's so clich, but that's what COVID taught me: Life is too short -- you basically have only one life and time is limited, because there were so many things that I wanted to do prior [to] COVID that I was just like, 'Oh, I can't do this because I'm busy. Now I'm like, 'I should have done that.'
