You already chose a topic that is affecting our lives enourmously:
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO AFTER THIS LOCK DOWN?
It is difficult to think about that day because this coronavirus outbreak has taken too long that it has been changing in some way our habits, thoughts, reflections, our relationships, etc. Being in quarantine has affected our lives for better or worse, it depends on our decision. Words like: quarantine, lock down, curfew. social distancing, isolation, etc...,have become all too familiar for us.
Some experts say that life may never return back to normal after this outbreak because even with a vaccine the virus will be a looming threat. If we want to get back to pre-coronavirus would be rather improbable in the sense we might feel anxious and frightened of getting infected. Meanwhile, I guess, habits we have been adapting to avoid infection will likely stick around like washing hands frequently, wearing face coverings, desinfecting surface or the way people greet each other, etc.
This tsunami-like impact of this global pandemic has become a real transformation in our daily lives and it will in the long run. Apart from changing our habits (for better I would say), our behaviour will also be affected that is why I can barely think what I want to do.
Maybe I will visit one of my sons.
I think I´ll probably travel to Concepción to spend some time with my sisters, nieces and nephews but I wouldn´t say this is going to be easy because I don´t know if I will be able to manage fear.
There is no doubt that , despite of this tragedy that so many people have been killed by the coronavirus, we , as a society, are going to strengthen our spirits, and perhaps significant
changes are about to come, while scientists are still working on the different vaccines...
Now, you:
- How you and your family have dealt with this quarantine?
- Could it be an opportunity to improve as a society?
- What activities have you rediscovered?
- Have your studies become a problem?
- Are you optimistic or pessimistic about the pandemic?
In this complicated context, one has to keep hope. I hope that you can visit your family in concepcion.
ReplyDeleteHi, his words reflect positivity in the future. I hope you can travel to concepcion, with all possible sanitary measures, so as not to put your health at risk and have a good experience visiting your family.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletehis words are very accurate !! I hope you make your trip
I´m scared to think that things will never go back to the way they were, but as society we have to be strong and hope this pandemic will end soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope that we will can learn about this
ReplyDeleteWe are living an extraordinary situation, I am sure that the world is going to change, but I hope that you and all the people can return to normality soon
ReplyDeleteIt is a complex situation and it is understandable that we have a fear of going out of our homes. But we have to keep our hearts strong to be able to embrace each other again.
ReplyDeleteI hope we can get out of this global situation soon, but for now we have to keep on the sanitary measures.

ReplyDeleteI would like to be optimistic like you :(
My mom always says that things happen because of something, we will have to see the teaching that this pandemic leaves us
ReplyDeleteThis situation has been difficult for everyone, I hope that this will end soon.
ReplyDeleteI think that the pandemic has put an incredible (and sometimes impossible) challenge ahead of us. The last year has been a constant reminder of how vulnerable are and how much we need cares and supporting webs with other people. I really hope that that sense of interdependency and solidarity goes on.
ReplyDeleteI hope this pandemic ends soon
ReplyDeleteI miss so much the life pre-covid, hope all of this could stay in the past someday
ReplyDeleteI miss life before the pandemic, although I still like being at home, it is my comfort zone
