As the case may worsen everyday, we are all advised to practice preventive measures to help contain the disease. However, we are all hopefully seeking for God`s intervention.
Loneliness can sometimes be normal, because some people can decide to be alone for sometimes and reasons best known to them. But ever since the covid19 started, loneliness has been a nightmare, because not everyone enjoys being out of company, not even for a day.
