Let's see the bright side and make use of the time, potentially wasted, NOT.

Recently, when I was hearing one of my favorite Podcasts when driving back home, I came across a very good proverb.
It goes;

"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

This was basically a message for those who have been suffring from the pandemic, and I felt the sympathy as well. At the same time, This idea can be true in English learning, well of course in any learning. You will not get as far as you have planned unless someone helps you out and you willingly take their hand to be pulled up. If you are there, alone, sad, or feeling anxiety about what you are doing, just let yourself lean on someone or spit the word to feel a bit releived. I think so because in such a terrible time of the world, once in a lifetime, it is OK to not be OK.

Let's study English together with whatever reason you are doing it for, maybe like for tests or for fun, because that, I believe, will help you stand straight and walk forward. Have at it, will you?

Thank you for reading.
