As many things are happening right now such as the pandemic, with the scourging of the many variants aside from COVID 19, which are the Delta Variant and other variants that keeps on emerging.

People kept on rambling about these situations that keep making them stay and do nothing, they ramble on being so unproductive and being imprisoned in their house without income and just waiting for the supply given by the government.

I and my Lady Boss were talking earlier about the current situations especially here in our city. She asked why do people keep on rambling about being in a lockdown when they are the reason that some parts of the city are being forced to have lockdown because residents don't follow the protocols as suggested by the IATF to ensure safety from the virus.

Then I stood her many people keep on rambling because that's all that they can do as of the moment. I remember when we are on our way to some project sites we saw some people in the compound who are not wearing masks at all. Big Boss told me that the reason the cases in the city would never minimize is because of these people who can never follow simple instructions and just go on their ways of living without thinking that they are harming those people around him.

Then it came to me, many people are missing the old life they had, including me, before this great pandemic hit us, or the world.

Before we only grumble in the ling traffic and the unpaid overtime for those working. The many activities and examinations for the students. And the not so blatantly mouth of moms at home complaining about the prices of the food that always increased day by day.

Now we grumble on always wearing facemasks and face shields, on having to only go home once a week for the safety of those at home. We grumble at some delivery app that doesn't deliver our food on time, or some grab driver that let's us wait long before they arrive because their map was making a fool out of them. Mostly we also grumble on some shopping app that delivered the wrong size or the wrong item to us.

There is an advantage and disadvantage having this pandemic. Mostly in the beginning months of Covid19 rising and the talks of having lockdown,. It came to me as a breath of air, that I can rest for a while and be with my son. Some of the workers would feel like that too, having to be away from work and to be in the comforts of their home with their loved ones. Some became a cook, a gardener most especially an online earner.

Nature had its advantage too. Less pollution from vehicles, planes, ships. The sea and land creatures got their little freedom for a while.

If all people knew that we are quite lucky enough unlike those people who were born in the 1900s. They had a lot of tragedies happen than ours. they have no technology like ours today. They need to write a letter and fax it for it to arrive at its sender for a week or two while we can send it right away through social communication.

Let's not grumble because of this pandemic. Instead, let's be thankful that we are well provided in this life we are in. Having free air and water is such a blessing already, how much more if you could eat at least three times a day minus the snacks.

Thoughts:

Just my ramble on people who keeps on grumbling including myself. Publish my second article because I didn't publish it yesterday because the system is down.

Shoutout to @LucyStephanie , @Eunoia for the trust and support hehehe love lots..

Sobrang relate and guilty ako nito beb huhu. I am one of those people na kung minsan eh wala ng ibang ginawa kundi mag reklamo ng magreklamo. Misnan di ko na na aappreciate ang positive side sa nangyayari.

True in what you say, people complain a lot. We have to thank God that every morning we open our eyes. Many people have not been able to open their eyes because of the pandemic. A positive point is that we are sharing more at home with our families. Greetings.

You have a point, even i also feel that way..i grumble because i feel like we weren't free anymore,i grumble because i only found the situation worsen the economic crisis, because most people loss their job and some business establishments need to close.. which is i think was right, but nevertheless it is also the right thing to do,but after all we can still able to eat 3 times a day,we found ourselves more productive just to survive and we even got a chance to enjoy each others company because we got a lot of time to spend because of the pandemic. And i guess that was the advantages of lock down.. the disadvantages from it that i have found was the fact that some of us stayed grumbling but do nothing just keep on waiting for something that the government can provide..

Speaking of lockdown and gambling toward the unseen creature with disgusting spike or corona that travels to the droplet onto the air. I was also messaged about the lockdown that will come through the market in our place just today hayyystt. The chaos of the chaotic world is underneath our hands indeed.

Complying with or not following the Covid rules is not just about protecting oneself and the life one leads. Complying with the rules is a duty to other people in the society and is an activity to protect them. With the right steps and behaviors, we can prevent the epidemic and cause fewer people to be negatively affected.

They are just good complaining pero sila. I simple rules na magsuot lang ng facemask or face shield dipa magawa. Anong klase yon, tapos lahat nalang isisis sa gobyerno. Kung baga nong una palang sumusunod na sila. Ee hindi ee, parang feeling pa nila kinukulong sila kaya ganon. Ay tamo mas lalo manding dumadami ang kaso. Ay ambot nalang!

In the past, there was the Great Depression, the Dark Ages, World War I and II. This pandemic would've been easier if people just follows the protocols. Kaso wala, ang daming pasaway, lalong-lalo na ang mga nakaupo. Hays.

I think that was the most normal thing for us — to ask and have prejudices on the things we experience. Honestly, you are right. Some truly just need to vent out these frustrations. However, nothing will happen with such. It's saddening that the world changed drastically over time; people lose lives and changed the way we live now.

Regrets are inevitable and is a part of life but we should change it and make our lives better instead. I think a positive mindset will motivate ourselves to feel that it's not yet the end.

I guess some people find grumbling as a way to release their pent-up stress, so no matter what happens, they will always have something to grumble about.

Indeed, that's what I'm also I Thinking about. Its the citizens who's also at fault for not following the rules that's why we have a large number of active cases yet they put all the blame to the government which is wrong. Also, for me I'm this pandemic the nature is starting to rehabilitate from the absence of human in some areas.
