I know what you're thinking " Asvika, how could there possibly be anything good about a virus" but, trust me there is. I know the virus has brought a lot of things to the world that isn't all that great but, in times like these, you should always focus on the good. It's my job today, right now to somehow make you smile.
Pollution
You know how people think the world is going to end because of pollution (or at least I do), well thanks to COVID pollution is decreasing!!!! Fewer people are using cars which means there is less gas being used. China's pollution went down by 1/3 and China is the most polluted country.
Sleep
Thanks to coronavirus people are getting more sleep and I don't have to wake up at 6:00 every morning for school!!! Getting a good night's sleep is very important because without it you can't have a productive, happy day!!! Nowadays I wake up at like 10:00 and I don't think it's possible for me to wake up anytime sooner.
In touch
People are in touch more with relatives, friends, and neighbors they never knew. They can't talk to the people they normally do so they talk to the only people they can talk to. Humans can't survive without socializing (I know I can't) so they talk to people around them like the neighbors they never knew they had. Then, they help each other out and become friends!!!
Breaking Routine
My schedule before the coronavirus was: wake up, go to school, come back, eat dinner, and go to sleep. This is what happened every day until the coronavirus came. I was getting seriously bored with the same schedule. Plus it's good for your body to have a change in events and I definitely needed that.
Clear Waterways
The waterways in Venice are so clean that you can see through the water. The water was murky because of the boats that passed by but since COVID came there are fewer people traveling in Venice and fewer tourists. One of the many places I wanted to travel to was Venice because it doesn’t have roads! I mean how cool is that!
Respect
When COVID came we all started to appreciate everyday heroes that help us during these rough times from your postman to your grocery clerk. They were always there to help and still are. I really want to thank all of the people that are helping us get through these rough times and are still helping to this moment.
Me time
Since COVID came we have a lot of free time on our hands to do new things that we never had time to do like clean the house. During COVID I started to draw and found something I was interested in. We also have a lot of time we can spend with our family. I and my family did many fun things together.
Covid-19 has killed many people and I hate as much as you do but focusing on the good would help you get through it because you won't be stressed on the bad. As Willie Nelson said, " Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results."
