Covid-19 Crisis: Taught People to Live Life with a Purpose

Tomorrow is never promised, so love and appreciate the people who are in your life.

Honestly, this pandemic taught us so much about life. How we should live with it, be contented of what we have, aim to survive, and some more. In my 37 years of existence, I’ve never been into isolation like what COVID does. But this so-called “isolation” is the period which will help us lower the chance that a person or animal could transfer illnesses to others.

What are we doing to get through the situation?

I am staying at home whenever possible (I am the one who goes out and buys anything we need). In this time of difficulties, I felt different. I change the way I see things. Through my blog, I share positivity, good vibes like sharing funny videos, and I am honest to say I learned how to do that “TikTok.” Haha. I am learning new skills, giving time to work out to be healthy and fit and spending more time with my kids, preparing home-cooked healthy meals, and showing solidarity in our little way, by cooperating with our LGU’s or government policies to practice social distancing and proper hygiene. We are strictly practicing adequate sanitation and disinfection at home.

 

How is our situation during the pandemic and quarantine?

I admit I react differently to every stressful situation in life because of my panic and anxiety disorder, which makes me feel more anxious, and I am panicking all the time. Not just that, this pandemic affects our job that instant. The father of my children lost his, and mine was turned into part-time status. But that doesn’t hinder us not to deal with the situation well. Despite this crisis, we can feed our children three times a day and survive since lockdown and quarantine started. I am grateful to say that even if I have a part-time job at the moment, we were able to help others, not that much, but I know it brought positivity to other people, which is more important. Sabi nga nila “No one has ever become poor by giving.” which is true. Kahit di man kami mayaman, but yung pakiramdam to ease yung gutom is a big help and through this, we INSPIRE people to keep going and huwag mawalan ng pagasa.

During this Pandemic, what this COVID-19 taught us?

What makes you move forward?

I am staying optimistic that this pandemic will vanish as fast as it quickly arrived. It just teaches us more about life, appreciates people around us, and little things we have. We should not quit; I keep finding ways to keep going, especially I am dealing with my mental health concerns, even if I have to do things little differently and with determination. Whatever circumstances we are dealing with, let’s nurture the strength within ourselves.

My children are my motivation to keep going. And never forget to PRAY that all things will be alright in HIS TIME.

Love, Share and Spent More time with your loved one.

  • napalaking tulong din po talaga ang pandemic na ito mas narealize natin na mas maganda ang mga simpleng pamumuhay makikilala mo tlaga yung mga handang tumulong sa iyo ng walng anumang kapalit. mas simple mas masaya. yung mga di mo nakaka usap dati bigla mo maalala kamusta na ba, maga hidden talent biglang boom ayun dahil sa quarantine nagawa mo.
    maraming salamat mommy hearty for sharing

  • If COVID-19 taught me anything, it’s to limit my time on social media and live a real life with real people who I can have real lasting relationships with. They help you get through tough times like COVID. Social media too often only breads confusion, frustration, and anger.
    I respect and appreciate you, what you have been doing is not easy at all, and I admire you so incredibly much. You have inspired me to be better. Thank you

    “No one has ever become poor by giving.” Agree to this, small or big is such a big help to others. We can think of many ways to help esp when helping feed our souls.
