Most people I knew were fatalistic or resigned that panic buying isn’t going to make the situation any better. Instead of panic buying, they spent time figuring out options and solutions to cope with fuel shock. Instead of panic buying, they released their anxieties by being momentary “Maritesses” or amateur analysts letting off steam. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. “Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”Yes, we have enough problems in the world and some of them directly or indirectly affect each of us.
