BE AT WAR WITH COVID-19


        Praying is the most powerful weapon we can use this time of pandemic. Fighting with the things that we cannot see is the hardest battle we can encounter.  However, we, the Filipinos, are strong people because we can still manage to smile or laugh even if we’re in the middle of blows.

This year, there are many calamities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and most specially flashfloods that we’ve been through yet, we are still here standing strong but, the Covid-19 disease performs a different big blow to us for the reason that it is the only one remained unsolved. Many people already lose their job and many students struggling financially, emotionally and mentally that ends up committing suicide because of this new normal. On the other hand, we can get through it by performing small steps. Following health protocols is the easiest way to do, and by performing this, we can make progress. Moreover, unity and cooperation is necessary because we can’t achieve progress without these.  In addition, tourist destinations should be close temporarily because wearing facemask is useless when we're going out in crowded places, as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said, “Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough we must do.” As well as, don't wait for the vaccines to heal us, instead, starts performing actions that will eliminate the viruses.

As a Filipino, I believe that we can get through it because we have strong faith in God. We will heal as one, rise like sun until this pandemic is gone and as a result, we are now able to have fun.

Following health protocols is all we can do to help the frontliners. We will heal as one if we are one, so stop being naughty.
