    LIFE LESSON FROM COVID-19

    There is always a point in one’s life wherein we thought we saw and understood the real world
    and got figured out all about life. Before the pandemic have its way, this is currently where I am,
    as an emerging adult. March of the current year, the new normal is introduced, the outbreak of a
    pandemic began in our country. In this crisis no one is exempt, anyone’s health, mental and
    financial state are all affected around the globe. In this new normal situation, as a young adult
    with the perspective of typical millennials, it is quite challenging to seize the moment and live
    life.

    In the beginning of the community quarantine, the schoolwork continued online. As a shallow
    minded person, I thought living life is all about enthusiasm, confused by a fad. My everyday
    routine was wasting my time on social media, games, movies and series, satisfying myself and
    following the trend. My schoolwork is the one that is being punished since I always do it near the
    deadline. I was overwhelmed with the freedom and plenty of time I have that resulted in a nearly
    failing grade. Embracing those bad habits affected my mental health, decreasing my productivity
    reflected to my self-esteem and self-worth. I’m battling anxiety and overthinking, when I realize
    I’m destroying myself and decided to stop it. I started by sleeping and waking up early, eating
    healthy food, drinking plenty of water and engaging in activities that will improve my skills and
    fitness. During this time, I’m occupied and focused on self-development that I overlooked other
    important things in life, such as building relationship until my brother broke the news someone
    in my family has passed and just a span of one month it was followed by another member of my
    family. All my life, I do things for my future, living according to plan, and thought that I figured
    all out and all things will work out since all is well in life. I never thought that I will lose them
    this early and at the same year, they are always in my future where I plan on giving back to them.
    I have never lost someone that is so close to me before, it was the first time, and coping with it is
    not that easy. I am filled with regrets that I wish I spend more time with them and make them
    feel how much I love them. There are so many questions that played on my mind, I started
    questioning life and our existence, and contemplating what is my purpose. However, I have
    learned that life is not always according to our plans, we must learn to accept, always be ready to
    the uncertainty that life will throw upon us and learn something from it. Until now I’m not
    completely fine, acceptance is not yet registered in me and wish it was only just a dream. Even
    the world will go back to normal, it will never be the same for us anymore.

    During this pandemic, most of us loses job, food and security, social life, and loved ones. This
    will make an impact in our lives just like how it did in mine. The most valued lessons I got from
    this was to live in the present, we should balance what we want in the future between what is
    happening in the present. Because life has no certainty, we should create and appreciate moments
    and memories of our loved ones. Family and friends are the one that will help us to overcome
    challenges in life because there is no guarantee that life is always easy.
