The Resilience of the Human Spirit

          Being able to bounce back immediately after a hardship, all the while offering help and warmth to other people, is a feat one should always hope to have. Though the story changes when the trait you work hard to build for yourself and particularly your country is used as a tool to shroud its downfall.       

In this time of pandemic, we are all facing different triumphs. Medical front liners have to face every person that carries the virus without minding the possibility of getting infected. A lot of people have been laid off of their work and barely had the means to support their needs. Moreover, the educational system cannot continue without somebody being compromised.

Smiling despite the hardships, helping amidst the very dangerous environment it took to perform such thing, this is the Filipino way. This is how Filipinos adapt with every existing problems, like the pandemic. Though, we should take also the lessons of such disasters with passion learning and building one's self better from there-- not in just few months or years, but beyond our lifetimes.
