We Filipinos have been through a lot of adversity back then until now. We have faced strong storms, agricultural problem, economical issue and much more, but those challenges did not knock us down.
Currently, Filipinos are suffering because of this pandemic. This virus called COVID-19 has caused death and pain to innocent people of our country. It made most Filipino jobless and brought hunger to people. We feel unsafe everytime we go out. It’s a threat to our lives. We are having hardships because we can’t do things freely, without getting worried and anxious with the people who surround us which we doesn’t even know where they came from or who they have socialized with. It gives as more limitions and distance from each other. It literally changes everything in what we were you used to, that it made us trouble to adjust.
However, we Filipinos have been adaptable with this new normal and staying strong to continue our life through this battle with an invisible enemy. We could even find opportunities to be grateful behind this pandemic. Beyond that it brings us closer to our family as we always stay at our own homes to be safe. It made us realize things and appreciate every simple moments with our special ones. Every memory with them is getting much more prescious.
We are becoming more stronger and united as we grapple for each other’s safety. Soon, this pandemic will just be one of those legendary stories that Filipinos will overcome. We are tough because we are Filipino.
