So, it’s been months now that the whole world is in chaos due to the fast-spreading of the coronavirus. And we are not an exemption here, no one is exempted, tbh. We’ve been worrying every single day. People became suspicious of one another.
And during difficult times like this, the only way that could back us up and comfort us- is to pray, and pray harder. When nothing could be done, and even the wealthiest man on earth wouldn’t be spared out of this disease.
I worry a lot these days especially now that the virus is fast-spreading here in the country where I’m living and upon hearing the news that there are local transmissions here already. Been a week or two since the first outbreak (Feb 21,2020 I guess when it first reached here) and as of now, 100 plus (189 as of today if I’m not mistaken) had been infected with recoveries and one death.
I hate this feeling, seriously.
But here is the actual story. I’ve always been fascinated with apocalyptic & post-apocalyptic movie: Birdbox, A quiet place, The road, Extinction, to name a few and I’m always vocal about how I want to experience the same and the excitement that would bring me with the thoughts of grocery looting inside the empty shopping malls and supermarkets taking all the food and drinks I want for free, or trying to live in a world of silence, in a world of zombies, walk in the ghost city, or live in quiet/destroyed earth trying to find a way to live but turned out that it’s just as good as the movie.
The truth, you will never want that to happen in reality! As in, never. Why did I say this? Because I actually feel it now. Like we are all living just like the characters of those in the apocalyptic films where the world is stricken with a deadly virus and everyone is trying to survive with it. That everyone would soon die one by one and no one will be spared. That the world would never recover from this until we all get immune from it and people started to get used to the virus-like it’s a normal thing. Just like the characters in the A Quiet place where everyone doesn’t have to make any slightest noise in order to save their lives.
Or worse, that the earth would be destroyed and it will all go to a fresh start- like the movie Time machine, or soon we will all live in another planet like Mars as what I’ve seen on the SCI-FI films, where astronauts fly outer space and see if there are any planets inhabitable by humans so we could all start a new living.
Scary right? I hope it won’t happen anyway- not as of the moment or not as of the near future, I hope not. I hope this would end soon. Sooner than soon and won’t happen again in the future.
Let us all pray and cooperate/follow what the government instructs us to do. Do not be a thick head and pretend to be a “know it all” person. Do not take it for granted. Do not panic, yeah, but let us all be aware of what’s happening around us. Be prepared. Help each other. And pray again. Whatever happens, just pray, again and again, and pray for each other. This is the time that we have to show human kindness. That nothing or no virus would ever overpower the human mankind.
Be united. We can all survive this!
