Although, covid19 was a period everyone can't deny caused so many bad experiences and delays in almost all areas of our lives of not all of it. But some things we're able to have a cause to smile that wouldn't have been possible if not for covid19. Some of these positive outcomes of covid19 include:-
- Finally got a hold of my mental health:- I certainly can't paraphrase that in any better way than I was able to plunge myself partially out of depression. Last year, I had a mental breakdown. I could feel myself drowning in the voices in my head. I lost two people close to me and it felt as though there was no reason to get by each day since life can decide to spring more surprises and take more people I love
Like they always say that Life is so unpredictable. I entered this year with drained mental energy, voices as loud as a megaphone, a little faith in my ability to get through the year without committing suicide. I knew I should see a therapist but I gave myself a hundred reasons not to. My excuses, ranging from work, school, writing(mind you, I wrote more dark poetry than I ever will in my entire life and even my suicide notes twice) was no longer worth a chance when schools closed and work stopped too. Dad had to stay at home too. He noticed the changes in my life(something that always skipped his notice when work took a lot of his time) and encouraged me to see a therapist. I did. Long story short, I am beginning to get my sanity back. Thanks to Covid19 for taking my excuses away.

I never realized how distant my family was until we all had reasons to stay at home. Then it all made sense to me. We have drifted apart so much that everyone had taken to battling their problems themselves even though the family is meant to solve problems together. Despite that, we were sleeping in the same house, Waking up to the same roof, yet miles apart. Covid19 also gave us more time together to sort out differences and pick up the pieces of our connection where we left it.
I took a lot of online courses that I would normally have ignored because of my busy schedule. Amongst others, I got my certificate from google as a digital marketer and a soft skill training certificate from Jobberman.
- *I read more books than ever-: I love reading books but my usual schedule made it extremely hard to read more than a few pages daily. I have been able to even finish some books in just one day. Thus, increasing the number of books I can read every month. I already exceeded my book year goals.

- I found blogging-: Blogging has always been a luxury I thought I could not afford. Well, I couldn't. Covid 19 helped me to enjoy luxury without the fear of procrastinating other pressing tasks.
I believe that there is always a good thing in every bad experience moment. Covid19 has helped me learn a lot, improve a lot, change a lot of things about myself and my family. i am sorry if the numbers are not in order, I have been trying my best to set it properly but to no avail
