Today, my grandchildren came to visit me. We talked about my youth. It was an interesting conversation. They didn’t even believe me.
-Please grandma. Don’t forget that you promised us to talk about how so many bad things happened in the same year.

-OK. Sit here. Look, it was 2020 and in December, 2019 a virus came out in China. And it effected all over the World except Turkmenistan and North Korea. Millions of people were in quarantine. So many people died. I was 12 and in Turkey children who were under 20 and people over 65 couldn’t go out for 3 months. And not just this, so many things also happened. For example, in Indonesia dozens of floods happened, there was an ebola outbreak, tornadoes happened, Puerto Rico earthquakes happened, in Australia there were bushfires for 240 days, an avalanche happened in Van and many more things. But the worst was Covid-19. More than 300,000 people died because of it. And while people were at home a all of the World, we saw that nature can live really well without humans. We again learned that we mustn’t hurt nature. May be Covid-19 was sleeping under an ocean or in an ice mountain or in the rainforests. And people went and took the virus.
-Waaooww…
-We don’t believe it. Grandma, please tell the truth. How can so many things happen in one year. And a little virus can’t effect all over the World. Don’t make a joke.
I just smiled…
