COVID-19 Vs LINGUISTS : A Gulf of nostalgia
COVID-19 Vs LINGUISTS : A Gulf of nostalgia
I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
Albert E.
Maybe Albert would say that the weapons for world war III would be bioweapons. But he did not tackle who would be the fighters for both III&IV too ! He did not know WW III would be the war fought by our loved ones, our grand-parents, our moms, our dads, our kids. The vulnerable are now the great soldiers targeted. The invisible enemy is picking up those with weak immune-systems. They are crying in hospitals afar way from their loved families, no daughter to enjoy her last smile, no son to inherit, no wife/husband to disclose the last secrets, only surrounded by strange faces with masks ! Billions, we are confined nostalgic here singing nice songs to our loved ones crying in hospitals across the world. Though a day seems to be a year, we salute for the great warriors at front line— doctors, nurses, leaders, scientists, guards, carpenters, and grave servants.
The current Earth, honestly speaking, needs some people back. Those who do not find their pieces of enjoyment in politics, celebrity, money,sex,hatred,authoritarian eulogy but those who act like Albert Einstein at least, those who freely enjoy their spare time on experiments , just to find out why things are happening and come up with the efficient mysterious results conceived in a way that might require a different Intellectual quotient.
The Earth is in a scourge of wild deadly diseases, and the earth is in a strong rarity of people [abovementioned] to find treatments for all of us— the rich and the poor without restrictions, if so, some disease such as cancers, HIV/AIDS, COVID-19, etc... would have got treatments easily and at affordable costs.
I encourage linguists from all over the world not limited to our loved ones, keep praying for God’s relief and to follow the guidelines as provided by the health authorities in your countries as well as by the World Health Organization but the most important above all else now is Social distancing.
Wash your hand, save your loved one !
