Always Look at the Brighter Side!

Six months ago,when the strict community quarantine was declared.The world seems stopped.Many of us felt so devastated,News about the growing numbers infected by the C virus added up to the unpleasant feeling we were experiencing.Everything for a while stopped,including the economy.Many can't go to work,transpo has been suspended,even the busiest major roads and hi-way which always have a heavy traffic became quiet for a while.People can't go out,only essential workers were permitted.Authorized person within the household with a quarantine pass only can go out to buy necessities and medicines. After more than two months,our government slowly re-open the economy.They allowed to open some establishments,up to this day almost all was allowed to back to their work.But many businesses had collapsed,bankrupt and forced to shutdown.They can't taked any more the big lost during lockdown period.So in effect,many has retrenched to their work,many lost their jobs and livelihood.Now,the economy trying to recovers. But during those times,although I felt so down,felt like a prisoner,just the four corners of our house I saw or outside just infront of the gate.I had the realization.That everything happens for a reason.Everything has it's purpose!Maybe God said,people are too busy with their jobs;the lockdown was the answer.Most of the people can't able to work or they work from home.They had a quality time for their families.Saw their children grows,allow them to know more each one of them.It's really precious I think,because if you have kids,they are just once in a lifetime to be a kid.You can't go back to those times any more.Families got a chanced to eat together,that maybe rarely happenned if some of them were too busy.Our nature recovered a bit,took a rest from the pollutions brought by smoke from vehichels,factories etc.There was a report,the carbon dioxide level emitted by vehichels and factories was reduced.I remember a news shared by a netizen,he took a picture from the highest building in the metro,he captured the windmills from the mountains in the nearby province,because before it wasn't visible due to air pollution.And the most important realization I had during those time;People turned backed to God,to asked Help,guidance and protection.Above all,God will only be the one who can give the biggest help to mankind.

Yeah, I too added a discussion yesterday something like this - "There's always a silver-lining in the gossamer clouds!" It's good that people are focusing on the brighter side of life. I appreciate you.

Hi! @pjmurphy So far everyday,big numbers are still adding to those infected.But the good news are,more each day are recovering and deaths are decreasing.That's why,the quarantine here is not that too strict now,though some areas,had their localized stricker quarantine.But still stricker to health protocols.
