When COVID hit the world last 2020, a lot of things happened in a blink of an eye. From one case of COVID positive, it has boomed to thousands then to millions. A lot of people suffered. Everyone was in shocked with the fast pacing of events. The world seems like in a journey of the unknown. And never did anyone see the pandemic coming.

Life before pandemic was never perfect, but it was better. Everyone can roam around where they want to. They can travel to places without restrictions. They can enjoy spending time together with their friends without minding the thought of social distancing. They can join big events, concerts, and name a few freely. Howbeit, as COVID entered the frame, life was never the same. The new normal came in, which we tried getting used to.

Looking back, when the COVID was still fresh from each one's mind. One thing that happened is quarantine. Each family was told to stay in their house and only one or two people from the household can only go out. A lot of things from the economy was greatly affected because of it. A lot of people have lost their job because the company lessen the number of workers due to the country's situation. The mode of transportation as well as its fare was greatly affected as well. The fare have risen because that's the mandate. People have no choice but to follow what is instructed by the government. There are also restrictions from getting in from one place to another. The world looked so hopeless from that view. A lot of people were hungry and just waiting for the government to send them goods because they don't have money since they have lost their jobs. Plus the goods were so out of reach.

Those moments were one of the worst things that happened to the world so far. When we thought that things will be back to normal in just a month or two, but as the months went by, it worsens and it left each one with a sense of hopelessness that the pandemic will soon leave the world. The world was in a never-ending gloominess and it seemed like the sun will never show up in time.

Howbeit, despite all the negative things that happened because of the pandemic, there are also things that we should be grateful for.

Good Health

One thing that we must be grateful for amidst pandemic is the gift of good health. We must be grateful to God that despite the virus that's going on, God continues to protect us from the virus including out family and loved ones. We must also embrace the fact that even if we experience being sick sometimes, it's nothing serious and we will be okay in no time.

Opportunity to Earn

Another thing to be grateful for amidst pandemic is the fact that we are given an opportunity to work to earn money. You see, it's hard to get a job these days, but if you have one, even how small the amount of salary it gives, it's something to be grateful for. We should also be grateful for the fact that we have met noise.cash and even the read platform which has given us an opportunity to earn Bitcoin Cash (BCH). With that, it has given us an opportunity to provide the needs of our family in out little way.

Food in our Table

Life seems so hard these days, but if we still have a food in our table. Or even if we can still provide for the needs of our family, then that's something to be grateful for as wel..

Self-love

We should also be grateful that amidst pandemic, we value ourselves especially our health. We learned to take care more of our body. We learned to exercise. We learned how to love ourselves even more.

Closing Thought

A lot of things happened amidst pandemic, some were good and some were bad. Despite all of those we should still be grateful for everything. We should still be grateful for the good and the bad, because those things made us who we are today. And it has yielded on something positive in someway.

I still remember the first week of lockdown because before that week, I finished my website. I did that for 3 days straight with only have few sleeps. Then my Prof announced that he cancelled the project. Ouch!

Yeah, without pandemic I will not meet bitcoincash and this platform. Especially you people here in the community. It's such a big help.

We can really from our experiences that everything happens for a reason. If the pandemic didn't happen, perhaps, we will not be able to be here in this wonderful community.

When the pandemic started, a lot of things has changed. Worsts things had happens, poverty arise, crimes get worsts due to poverty, people got stress as they lost their job and yet they also lost their love ones. People thought that there's no more hopes as the pandemic took it from everyone. And as a matter of fact they even forgot to be being grateful. But we can't blame them as none of us was ready with the pandemic, none of us was ready to lose our love ones. However we should also consider that everything that had happen has a reason and we should still remain positive and grateful as God never leaves us. Everything that we have after all the hard times, our lives, our Jobs, our foods are the most important thing to be grateful. Recovering might be hard but with God everything was still possible.

This is a big true Leticia. Everything change when the pandemic started. It was the most difficult times. Losing jobs, lack of daily needs, financial matters and danger because of the virus. Those four you've mentioned indeed the things we should be grateful Leticia.

I thought that pandemic would teach us a lesson of what really matters but it seems we haven't learned at all.

Indeed, there will always be something that we can be grateful for no matter what crisis we face.
