Face Mask
Now I know I am about to ruffle a few feathers with this one, but please at least consider and think about what you are about to read. By all means always do your own research. As a nursing assistant I have always tried to research and find new information in different health fields in order to decide a career path I would like to pursue long term and would be able to advance in. Since Covid-19 showed its ugly face my world and I'm sure yours also has been turned upside down. Job loses, housing issues, schools disrupted, shelter in place, businesses closing and now face mask everywhere.

Not the Mask!
The country has begun to confront the oppression that has become inherent to it since before its founding. People are protesting en mass in every state, and most major cities about police brutality and systemic racism that has defined the Black experience for as long as they've been in this country. Even my own little community here in Utah had a small gathering to come together to bond and confront the racism that is prevalent here. But that's not what this little essay is about. It's about wearing masks.

Living the ASYMPTOMATIC Life
Are you an asymptomatic person? I am and I never really gave it a second thought, before the Coronavirus took place and became a prominent factor in the United States. The domino effect began and our lives were put on hold for many of us.

When Nothing Means Everything
I've been given a "six-month to live" diagnosis since 1999. First, doctors said cancer would kill me in six months if I didn't have chemotherapy and radiation, which wasn't true. I survived and thrived without the hugely toxic treatments they proposed as the only way out of a death sentence. Instead, I learned how emotions directly affect the body. Specifically, how negative emotions can create fertile ground for stress and disease. The first glance into metaphysics and positive thinking came to me through Louise Hay and her book, You Can Heal Your Life, which I totally recommend if you're looking into ways of self-healing and self-love and self-forgiveness.

COVID: My thoughts after caring for a COVID patient.
COVID Perspectives: Things I learned caring for a coronavirus patient. Coronavirus is such a hot topic these days. Coronavirus, COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 as it has been called is a virus that is believed to have mutated from a coronavirus found in bats. Many speculate that this virus made the jump to humans possibly through an intermediate host such as the spiny anteater in an open-air live animal market in the Wuhan province in China . Some people are even speculating that this virus was lab-created and ‘turned on’ by the 5G cell towers as part of some nefarious plan to destroy the world! Regardless of the origin, this virus has become a serious public health concern throughout the world.

CoronaVirus-19
In my country and city, there is activation on roads. However, COVID-19 cases still rising. As I see on my application results, there are gloomy results in many countries. Some of the countries share their province results and many of them do not share their results. If you want to see your country information on the graph you can click this link and see some results

Wealth is still relevant. One reality and six foundations to happiness.
Imagine a place where they value what truly matters, arguably, the ultimate why. Why do you work so hard? Why do you want more money? What does it do for you to be able to afford anything you want? What does it mean to you to be able to do what you want?

Corona crisis exposes the stupidity and ignorance of most people.
Why do people not behave as they are advised for their own safety? Are we just ignorant idiots? Or do people just like to rebel? To answer these questions, we talk to Renato Troffa, a professor of social psychology at the University of Cagliari. “This is a complex phenomenon,” he says. Our frame of reference — our social background and environment, for example — has a strong impact on how we perceive a risk: “Do you trust the government? How concerned are friends and relatives? All these things matter.”

Living with a Disability During COVID-19
Living with a Pandemic During COVID-19 Since the first day of lockdown, well I self-quarantined maybe three days before the country or state had a mandatory lockdown, I have kept a journal, counting the days of lockdown, number of people who died from this virus, would I call it a disease, or the flu? People often said that it was very similar to the Spanish flu. I just left it at that, didn’t feel like going into a deep discussion about the difference between the Coronavirus and the Spanish Flu. I kept track of all the laws #45 had passed, I will not use his name, like making the pesticide that killed the bees legal again, what law he proposed but got shut down in the Supreme Court. But, truthfully, I missed spending my afternoons in the laundromat:
