EMBRACE project is an activity for recovery to a normal functioning life by well overcoming the crisis and loss experienced in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is “Community Day” of sharing and caring. One is the grieving project, where people with lost experiences learn to overcome crises by sharing together.

Overcoming  the crisis of Covid 19…

Suyeon Jin

We are now living under the influence of COVID-19. When we face a crisis, the form of life that overcomes a crisis varies from individual to individual. Some people blame the environment or people and try to pass on responsibility, thinking that there is a crisis due to external factors. Others blame themselves and try to bear the responsibility alone, while holding back. Of course, it depends on the situation, We don't have to deal with the difficulties alone or blame others, either. We need to judge ourselves as to whether the current crisis is something we can handle or should be helped by others. When we need help, we need to ask for help right away. The ability of struggling with the crisis is very limited. However, I hope we don't miss the opportunity to open our hearts and accept other situations and take care of our own maturity and development.

The newly developed field of COVID-19 is using the technology, such as a virtual meeting. Of course, there are people who are good at adapting the technology, but many people are still struggling after a year. Therefore, guidelines of IT, on-line, and video chatting are necessary for each organization or individual. I personally prefer to meet in person for my counselling, education and all meetings. I still want to put the brakes on the pace of the world's further development this way. The world demands to follow their rapid changes, contrary to our slogan, "It's okay for us to go slowly." I hope that this change will be balanced with our thoughts, emotions or actions. Additionally, I hope we will be able to follow well without any resistance to what we really need and what we can do.
