Together, we are stronger

A few days ago when the curator was on the phone with family she was told to be careful and to be safe. The one giving this urging remider could not hold their panicky voice when it came to the pandemic.
 
In facing this pandemic, what really saddens me is that due to the pandemic, my grandfather has been taking medication to cope with his daily life. I realized that he had exposed himself with repeated 24/7 news in order to keep up with this terrifying disease, but at the same time he could not shake off the fear that he or his loved ones might become one of the statistics on the daily news.

 Because there's no television in my home, I am fortunate to live in the absence of TV news. Without this facade of news, even though the pandemic is worsening, I've been focusing on myself, while trying not to neglect others and to follow the rules of pandemic prevention. But all of the above makes me feel like I'm isolated from the world.

We are not encouraging you to stay away from the news, but to choose another way to understand news in this bustling world, like reading through the newspaper, on your cell phone or computer so you get to choose what you like to read and the way you like to update your daily news. Also remember to verify the authenticity of the news you read, instead of being forced to digest negative news all the time.

 Let us leave the television, follow the rules of pandemic prevention strictly, and invest our time and love to our loved ones.
  
Together, we are stronger
