We are presently living in a vexatious world covered with imperceptible foe that makes us feel excruciating pain. Lurking is a pernicious monster dispatching innocent quintessence. Slinking is the virus provisioning our cerebrum with a lot of horrendous memories. We, Juans are yowling as we see mournful mise-en-scene. We are presently bawling as we take-off our blindfolds to see the lamentable events in our dishevelled milieu.
Nobly chivalrous front liners were entrusted to be ramparts against humungous debacle. Front liners are unselfishly immolating their lives as they are barring us from mortality. They are the vulnerable hedge, heroes whose lives are in the peril.
The hap that disconsolate me most is the incontrovertible fact that abaft the sacrifices of our heroes, beaucoup obtuse folks in different locus are still treading outside even there is ECQ/GCQ. Well, approved work or purchasing essentials is a different thing especially if your victual is toom. But hoofing outside without substantial thing to do? Cooperate with the government! Let me offer this cliché to uphold, “WARA KA NA NGANI MAIDANUN, DAGDAG KA PA SA KONSUMISYON!”
Is it strenuous to stay at home? It is an exigency! Kun wara ka man babakalon or wara ka man trabaho, just abide! Tarry yourself in your domicile until the government solved this walloping problem. Nakaya mo nga mag-stay sa maling tao, sa tamang bahay pa kaya?
Yesterday, I went to a store a few blocks away from apartment, I saw a cluster huddling while expatiating issues like ABS-CBN Shutdown, SAP, COVID-19 cases, Ivana Alawi, My Heart Went Ooops and etc., (some are not wearing facemask). How insentient for social distancing? Is it an arduous task to wear facemask? It is not bad to expatiate social and political topics but please be responsible citizen.
The government ordered curfew, a regulation adjuring to capture of people still chilling or walking outside their homes from 8:00PM down ‘till 5:00AM. But as per Danielle Nakpil of CNN Philippines, the April 6 report of the Joint Congressional Oversight Committee, 75,750 curfew violators were apprehended by the Joint Task Force Coronavirus Shield. The said news was published 7th of April, 2020 at exactly 6:05:36 AM. April 7 palang reported yan, May 10 na ngayon! Ilan na kaya?
Forced social distancing? Scheduled curfew? Don’t think of it as circumscription on our rights. In this predicament, we must do what we think needs to be done even we don’t want to. Let’s use the brains in our head… ewan ko lang sa iba kung meron, parang di kasi ginagamit. Let’s form a blitzkrieg of logics. Enlighten those who are in need of enlightenment. Kung wala kang pakealam sa sarili mo, magkaroon ka ng pakealam sa mga taong nakapaligid sayo! Kahit sa ganitong paraan manlang eh makatulong ka sa kapwa mo. There are lot of entertainment dais such as YouTube, Netflix, Tulflix, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, Twitter, Tiktok. If still bored, mag-hugas, maglinis, magluto. Nakaiwas ka na sa COVID-19, nakatulong ka pa.
