The recent events occasioned by the outbreak of COVID-19 has taught me many lessons some of which I will like to share with you.

I have learnt that life is a gift and a privilege no one has the ultimate assurance of life.

I have also learnt that death is closer than we can ever imagine.A man who went to a full scale war and came back with his body and soul intact can get killed by a supposedly harmless handshake.

I have also realized that we have underated the freedom we enjoy for too long.

No television set can ever replace the company of friends and family and no social media can be as human as a real human. This lesson we are all learning now.

I have learnt that no one actually knows tommorow.
I have learnt to laugh at anyone in crises because it could be anyone's turn tomorrow. In the beginning we thought this was just a Chinese problem but now it's a global pandemic.

When all these is over we would have all learnt that little things matters.

Let me end this by saying that I have realized why William Shakespeare compared life to "a story told by an idiot,full of sound and fury signifying nothing"

Good morning.
