Understanding and interpretation:
Based on the image and text I see in this visual text provided, I can say that it describes the situation happens during the COVID-19 outbreak. In my own understanding and interpretation on this visual text, I can see that after the first wave of COVID-19, the second wave follow which is the bankruptcies. The person who stands and faces the first wave feels fear, while the sand represents those people who are hardheaded, who travels and go to some crowded places. Also, the sun has two meanings for me, it represents the highest people or government officials that are chaotic in criticizing each other to gain more attention and power despite of the situation we face, it could also represent as our hope that this pandemic will end sooner but it is vague. When the pandemic started, the government started to implement health protocols, lockdowns and quarantine in places where the cases are very high. Also, the health professionals started to inform us about the virus and the things to do to prevent infection from the virus, through mass media and other social media platforms. We started also to panic but others don’t mind it, they don’t believe that virus can kill many people, so, they continue their activities and not minding the virus is everywhere. After the first wave, most of those stubborn and hardheaded people died. This COVID-19 pandemic not just affect the people’s health and its livelihood sources, but also our economy, not just in our country but globally. The coronavirus has upended the business world. Many macro and micro businesses have been close, and because of that, many people are affected, some of the employees lost their jobs, people have no more source of income and that has a big impact to sustain their family needs. The less fortunate people are mostly affected and suffer more from hunger and poverty. The business world suffered from bankruptcies which affect the economy of the country and of the world. As the result, our country has so many debts from other country in order to sustain our daily needs, and help us to get up and be able to start again.
Understanding and interpretation:
In my own opinion, the fries represent as their wins or their best food among their menu. Because of their delicious fries, their company become famous. They share or serve it equally to their customer. Also, they imply to us that, sharing what we have to others will make us successful and happy, even if you’re only one then you share it to many people. After you help others, you may become famous, because those people who receive your help will be proud of you.

Base on what see and observe in this photo, I can see the happiness, confidence, contentment, positivity, and authenticity in her eyes and genuine smile. Also, I can see in her hands her hard works, and what she does for a living. For me, it implies that we should be authentic, confident and contented on what and who we are, and with what we have, especially in our appearances and lifestyle even if we are not rich. We should not be ashamed on it, because we are created in the image and likeness of God, and He created us with purpose. Also, being authentic, confident and contented will make us not feel insecure to others. Being secure make us feel happy and positive in life, as long as we do not hurt and trampled or step on other people. No matter how difficult our life is, what and how we look even we have wrinkles and no more teeth, we should not forget to smile, be positive in life and happy, so as not to get sick easily. Be true to ourselves and to everyone to make us truly happy.
