The crisis we face

A wonderful day to everyone, hope everyone still holding on. I know every one of us is struggling to cope with all that we are experiencing right now. The oil price hike, price of commodities are increasing, the fare also going up everything and anything is going up. This is what they called a domino effect.

As I remember, I heard this from one of the webinars of my coworker that after the pandemic we will face another crisis which is the financial crisis, COVID19 was known as the first phase of the world's crisis it was called the Health Crisis. The whole world spent millions or billions of funds to make a vaccine. The war between Russia and Ukraine wasn't predicted to happen in an instant but we can't deny it affects all of us.

But I'm not here to discuss Financial Statistics lol, I just wanted to share my own experience in this world's crisis. I think even the wealthy didn't escape this problem today and the poorest are getting poorer.

I tested myself last week if how would my 1000 pesos last ($20). Sad to say it only last a day, and in my list are only the most important, the fare expense is not yet included and the fare here in our area ranges from 15 to 20 pesos depending on the distance.

As everyone said, your 1000 pesos now have no more spirit lol (wa nay kalag) even how much we try to make a budget, still it won't last a week anymore. I've been a minimum wage earner ever since and my salary can't compensate for all of our experience that is why loans are everywhere 😅.

In this time of crisis, the only thing that we hold on to is survival, as long as we live for a day we can survive tomorrow. Everyone is affected and even the analyst can't say how long will be in this phase. We need to be strong, work hard and have faith in God to help us in our struggle.

Hopping that you have a wonderful day and keep on moving even if it is hard just always be thankful that we are still alive and can do anything that we wanted. God bless us all.
