Turn the Table

-

It is very noticeable nowadays how many people, young or old, get easily stressed or irritated because of the pandemic that the whole world is facing. Due to this corona virus, all our activities and plans were canceled. Instead of relaxing and enjoying the view of some beaches and beautiful places or hanging out with friends and have a get together, we are locked up in the four corners of our house. We cannot do anything but to get bored, we cannot help but entertain negativity.

But why do we let this pandemic ruin our days? Yes, it is very true that this year is indeed stressful because of the many bad news we hear from social media and the unpleasant things that are happening in the entire world but we should always remember and never forget to look at the bright side of everything and to see the silver lining of what’s h ap p en i n g.

This pandemic is the right time to realize how blessed we are and how we should be grateful of the blessings we took for granted before.

You are breathing, you are strong, you are healthy, you have food on your table, you are with your family and loved ones, and you are able to read this article at this very moment.

The past months may be stressful but there are still remaining months for this year, let us not lose hope, together let us lift everything up to the Almighty Lord and trust His words because He is a promise keeper.

We have to think the other way around and let us turn this challenge into opportunit­y.
