Pandemic ka lang, I am a Filipino

Self-awareness is the ability to focus on yourself and be able to evaluate your actions, thoughts or emotions, manage them and be able to improve them accordingly, even amidst a global pandemic.

Undoubtedly, during this global pandemic, I’ve been able to assess myself and have been able to improve my thinking and all that matters. I have my emotions and thoughts in check. As a result, I’ve been more productive and focused on what to improve or retain.

During this global pandemic, not only have I noticed changes in myself but also in the ever-changing environment. The people have been more cautious, though it didn’t stop them from gathering. Establishments became more strict, online selling became kind of a trend – that is, to earn money, and nature slowly healed itself now that we’ve been quarantined. Nevertheless, humans can be quite stubborn and persistent, they continued projects that harmed the environment and its dwellers all while turning a blind eye to the publics’ plea.

A simple yet significant initiative that even a Filipino Youth can contribute in the society amidst global pandemic is to strictly follow the health protocols. Staying safe could mean safety for others too. Moreover, as Filipinos who’re known for being resourceful, we find all possible ways to earn a living especially now that most businesses have closed due to the pandemic. In addition, one can also contribute by staying home. An initiative that can be done by anyone, especially the youth who don’t necessarily need to go outside that often.

Overall, I think it’s a good thing to be aware of oneself. Daniel Chidiac, author of “Who Says You Can’t? You Do” did say that being self-aware is not the absence of mistakes, but the ability to learn and correct them. Another, as long as life goes on, there will always be something for us to do. A must initiative to be realized.
