Reflections on pandemic

Pandemic, yes, pandemic is what we are experiencing right now.

They realized that it doesn't just happen in the movies and that is exactly what is happening right now.

Today, March 22, 2020, I am in Temuco, in the south of Chile, in quarantine.

We have only been in our homes for a few days and I think the collective hysteria is making itself felt.

Opinions, culprits, each with their reasons here and there...

All valid depending on the perspective we see it.

The world came to a standstill, commerce, jobs and the plans that each of us had planned with so much caution are being destroyed by this virus that attacks us worldwide.

We get up every day to work since there is a family to feed, bills to pay and obligations to fulfill.

We begin a cycle of never ending.

Looking forward to Friday so we can rest and enjoy, counting the minutes until 6:30 p.m.

You don't even realize it and it's already 10 p.m. on Sunday and back to the work week again!

“And the sport that happened, did it fulfill you so much?” Damn no, I don't have time.

“If you like cooking so much you should take a course, there are so many online” hell no, I don't have time.

“You write so beautifully, you should write a book or a blog, if it is something you are passionate about I don't see why you don't do it” hell no, I don't have time.

Time?
Time is what each of us has now, to do an internal analysis, reflect and get to know ourselves, return to those hobbies that were abandoned so long ago, or do that “something” that fills your soul so much but you didn't do it because first you had to do your duty.

Question yourself and ask yourself everything you want, take advantage of this moment for yourself.

Now is when you can fill yourself with questions so that you can only find the answers, time is no longer an excuse.

Maybe you need that “something” to be fulfilled in your life or maybe you have been afraid to ask yourself these questions for the sole reason that everything in your life could change.

Take this minute as a gift to be able to dig inside yourself, to know yourself and to guide your life in something called LIVING, not surviving, which in my opinion is something that many of us were doing for a long time until the moment one decides to take the reins. of your life and give it the direction YOU want.

Let's be aware that the most important thing we have is now.
At this minute you are reading me, at this moment, NOW, but tomorrow?
What could happen tomorrow? Will we make it to tomorrow?

That's why I think it's so important to do something that makes you happy, something that makes you vibrate, something so that getting up every morning is not a constant struggle but rather a day earned, enjoyed and lived.

For my part, today it is shoes, before it was a caterer and maybe tomorrow it will be something else, but what I discovered is that I vibrate with my independence, I vibrate with being the owner of my time and doing what I want when I want.

Accepting all the consequences that my own decisions bring.

I decide for my mental health, not to do what I don't like to do and break my neck for what I do.

I decide to break my head when the lucas are not enough and survive those moments while I discover how to achieve it again and continue dreaming.

I decide not to sell myself to the system because I don't want to survive.

I decide to pursue my dreams so madly that as they change I will madly change with them, because that is my way of enjoying life, at least I was the one who decided it.
