IT’S unfortunate our brothers and sisters down south had to suffer the wrath of super typhoon Odette for they had to make do with what was left of torn down roofs, and whole houses not to mention the damages it wrought havoc on agriculture and their properties.
Charge it to force majeure, Mother Nature, for this is beyond the control of us mortals.
And as they say, life must go on especially that a new year has begun.
According to the Chinese Zodiac, 2022 is the Year of the Paper Tiger.
Save for typhoon “Odette” Batangueños and all Filipinos have a lot to thank God.
The year just passed (2021) may have been the tail end of a two-year Covid nightmare.
We have awakened and maybe over from that nasty dream while looking at the far horizon faced with the 15th Greek alphabet a.k.a., Omicron variant.
Lucky it’s not heralded as virulent as the Delta variant but whatever that means everyone is looking at better jobs and business opportunities this year, the year PRRD has to step down and the assumption of a new regime.
Save for face masks that people are wearing everywhere, it’s actually back to normal, life in the “new normal.”
Availability of anti-Covid vaccines coupled with the willingness of majority of people of getting the jabs tilted the landscape to our favor.
As such, we can guaranty a better year ahead for everyone.
Happy New Year!
