Support Networks

Beyond our reflections over whether to lift or ease these restrictions is a thorny issue of how we will rebuild and relive our lives. 

But before then, there are precautionary measures we have to still adhere to in this new normal of our state.

In all sincerity, 2020 hasn't been going well with many people, due to COVID -19 pandemic. 

There were times friends joked that we should even uninstall the year 2020.

Although every year is filled with its own ups and downs, we couldn't have bargained for the panic of a pandemic in this year.

With the biting effects of this tide, we have perhaps seen how deeply interconnected we are. 

We might have realised the essence of making time for people in our lives and to reach out to others.

Whether we are living in the same space or talking via technology, our interactions with each other should be strengthened so that together we can pool through this period unscathed.

The significance of organic solidarity should not elude us as we may be pressed. The exigency of the time and the lessons we have learned should encourage us to build a support network of friends, relatives, and neighbours beyond this time.

We should, therefore, remind ourselves that valuing and respecting people is a crucial factor in building these bridges to help us sustain and strengthen our families, communities, and society at large.

We can win if we work together and support each other. We can make many gains if we CARE a bit more for each other.

I wish you well 

Greetings
