    I really like it when you read out the quotes because it really feels you genuinely love and respect words. You really take time to appreciate them and see what they mean. Lowkey want you to do an audiobook or smth cos I feel you’d do justice to a book by reading it aloud ☺️

    This is perfect timing.
    Im dr on duty in covid ward.
    Today is the greatest festival of india. Diwali. A day of hope and joy and everything that is good. And a patient died in front of me.
    We did everything we could but their gentle soul just leave this realm and i hope they goes to a Better place.
    You can feel the soul just leaving the body when you work so close.
    It was heartbreaking
    The news that i had to deliver to their family who also admitted in another covid ward.
    They didn't get to say goodbye.
    Im not okay.
    Please wear mask
    If not for yourself than for others.
    I don't want to cry for every soul that die due to cough and cold.no one deserve that.
    Thank u emma . I think this video is much needed today. Im greatful that you exist. Even not in close proximity but still. I really appreciate you.

  • @jamesduggan7200
    @jamesduggan7200 4 года назад

    HI Emmie. Thx for the update. Yes, quotes gain substance when they're presented within their original context. The more the audience has to twist something to find a useful meaning, the farther they are from the writer's intention IMO. Personally, I tend to twist, so context is always helpful. I twist so much that probably I use more relational pronouns and conjunctions than nouns and verbs.
