Wakashio
On the 25th July 2020, the MV Wakashio ran aground the coral reefs in Mauritius at Pointe D’Esny, a rare sanctuary of wildlife. The Japanese ship, which was filled with 4,000 tonnes of oil had an engine breakdown which led them to hit the shore in Mauritius on their way to Brazil. The captain, Sunil Kumar Nandeshwar and its crew managed to get of the ship a few days after the ship got stuck into the lagoon.

The COVID-19 Vaccine Passport
Life has certainly changed due to the emergence of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Disease outbreaks have plagued the earth for centuries. While some have been manageable, the rapid spread of others has turned into global pandemics. SARS came as a warning of the risks of COVID-19; however, COVID-19 drew our attention to the importance of good health and sustainable living. COVID-19 came as a surprise to a world unprepared to manage a pandemic deadly enough to kill millions worldwide. It felt like doomsday as prophesized by men of the past. The unanswered question of “where the world was headed” concerned many globally.

Maybe the only reason was to get you to squeal and run away, enticing a fun game of chase.

10 British Phrases That Most Americans Will Not Understand. Top Story - March 2021.
I live in the state of New York and have spent most of my life living in the United States; however, I am originally from England. I was born on a US military base in the United Kingdom making me a dual citizen. My mother is British and my father, an American who she met when he was stationed overseas. I clearly remember being three years old when my father got out of the service moving us from the State of Virginia to settle in his home state of Massachusetts.

The Real Boy
LIARS R US You, my friends, are LIARS! Don’t get offended or too hasty, because I did call you my friends first. I’m a LIAR TOO! We all are. Our parents lied, our grandparents lied and our kids will follow suit. Our leaders, politicians, and preachers all lie. The billboards, the banks, and everything on the News. Our Businesses, the scientists, and even your boss too! ALL LIARS! If anyone has ever told you that they don't lie, it is a lie! This is not to pass judgement on anyone. I can assure you that my “liar-pants” have been on fire for 36 years. No, this is more of a cordial invite to a dinner party. The main course: TRUTH sirloin marinated in homemade LIES with a side of GOSPEL gravy. It can be a little tough to chew at times, but we still cook it to perfection. No need to R.S.V.P., because it's cooked in your own kitchen.

As the world faces a pandemic, we globally ask ourselves – what are the necessities for living, and what principles are essential for life?
