Our Medical Capacities are Limited

Hospitals and our medical staff are struggling to keep afloat through this horrendous ordeal. Some were unfortunate to meet their demise while keeping their oath of service. This just goes to show that no matter how prosperous the economy is, when its priorities aren’t set on what’s essential, everything is bound to go downhill.

Offices and Classrooms Have Become a Social Construct

The new normal involves social distancing despite tasks interconnectivity and interdependence. Offices are functioning despite the remote working arrangements and classes have become modular as to fit the new norm. Some are more productive while being at home, while others become procrastinators. Because of this, we have learned that employers should take consideration in flexible working plans, and teachers should strategize new means for active learning.

When it comes to being law-abiding citizens, people in the seat of power aren’t as “lawful” as we’d like them to be. Some are using their authority and privilege to obtain and do acts that are harmful towards everyone’s welfare, and the community can’t do about it because, in the end, justice isn’t rightfully served.

Financial Preparedness is a Must

It’s always about how much you save—saving financial resources for emergencies like the Covid-19 pandemic shelters you and your family from the uncertainties of food supplies, medical expenses and miscellaneous fees.
