"Lucky"

Good day, today is the first of May 2020.
So many disruptions and calamities has happened in the first almost half a year of 2020.

The viral one in 2020 is Covid-19. The world, the news outlets and social media are heavily filled by Covid-19 all day all night. By now, Covid-19 has appeared in 212 countries and territories, 3,323,935 cases and 234,417 deaths worldwide. The current death rate is 7%, and worldwide lockdowns, restrictions, businesses collapses, increase of criminal activities, litigations, disputes and societies chaos.

In my perspective, someone has to be quite "lucky" to catch the Covid-19. The current population according to the worldometer website is 7,781,486,601. The current chance of someone catching the virus 0.000427159381 or 0.04%. The Covid-19 cases in Australia to this date is 6,765 compared to Australia population of 25,451,095, the rate of a person to get the Coronavirus is 0.000254016606 or 0.02%. Although the cases rate is low globally, the people who "luckily" got affected by the prevention of Covid-19 is 7.7 billion people almost 100% of the world population.

However, the chance of someone got the Covid-19 is still higher than the probability of someone winning the first prize in the lottery. The odd of someone winning division one in a Saturday lotto for A$ 4 million is 0.00001% the highest one among other lotto games. And someone must be extremely lucky to win Powerball with the probability rate of 0,000001%.

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

Who Am I?

You are what you captured, read and listen. Last year after I completed my degree, I have lots of time in my hand. I have had spent most on my relax time on social media such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. I received heaps of news and information from these three platforms only. All these information spread on social media have changed my MBTI personality from the Defender ISFJ to the Advocate INFJ; from the protective, warm and caring to the mystical and idealist. In 2019, I was so bloody active on promoting good causes and good news, increase the awareness of the people on the latest issues that happened around the world, pass on some petitions, greetings people, give comments, give likes to people post, get involved in online discussion, joined international group, etc. My friend also mentioned about the trend of social justice warrior, and how common it is among us millennials. With the advancement in technology, the search engines algorithms on the internet help us to pick t...

The Gateway to All Understanding

The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real. Naming is the origin of all particular things. Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations. Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source. This source is called darkness. Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding. Tao The Ching Chapter 1
