Covid 19 is getting rampant day by day.  Pandemic is inevitable.  Everyone is vulnerable to this unseen enemy which is a no respecter of age, gender or social status. We teachers as front liners and vanguard of education are not exempted from the attack of our enemy.  In times like these, we can’t help but face this pandemic on guard.  Consider these actitude attitudes in time of pandemic:

C – Calmness.  Keep your composure.  Stay calm and keep cool.  Never panic. 

     Face the situation with a clear mind.  Weariness has nothing to do, it

     doesn’t help you decide and work out your plans. 

O – Optimism.  Consider the situation as an opportunity.  Don’t focus on the

     negative ones, but instead, look for the positive results.  For instance,

     lockdown allows you to stay home and have quality time with your

     family and loved ones.

V – Validation.  Don’t just rely and immediately believe on the reports that you get    

                           from Facebook, and or other sources.  Always take time to

                             investigate, clarify and verify the authenticity of the report.  Fake

     news tends to complicate the issue and it won’t help solve the

     problem.  Rather, it might have led to another problem.

I – Introspection.  There is always reason for everything that is happening, be it worst

         or best, we need to dig the purpose.  Ask and pray to God for

         wisdom to help you comprehend the message of the

         undertakings.  No use to complaint. 

D – Devotion.  Instead of exaggerating the problem, let the giver of the solution  (God) be magnified.  Remember, God is greater than the biggest problem that this world could offer.  Amidst of it all, we have a great God who can drive away all these giants that we are facing with.  Always put our trust in Him for HE MAKES ALL THINGS POSSIBLE and TURN OUR TRIALS INTO VICTORY!
