Quarantine, huh, fun times. Fun times for you? Fun times for me? Certainly not for me.
I can stay indoors, in fact, a big chunk of my life was spent indoors in the past years. Whenever I am not exploring, I am indoors just doing me. Not jerking off, not that kind of doing me, I meant it as a me time.
This quarantine has taught me that a lot of people, if not the most, have no in spending time with themselves, just letting their thoughts flow, engaging with their inner self, getting to know who they truly are behind the mask they show to the outside world. Many people are losing their minds, understandable. But is it, though? Should it be understandable that we, as a society, can't seem to be able to bare spending time with ourselves?
Who knows. In fact, who cares. Nobody cares, we are all so self focused that we can't even notice what is happening around us and how it is affecting us as society.
But maybe it is understandable, after all, we all have to care about ourselves and what is happening to us. How the hell are we going to survive this quarantine, the upcoming - or already present - economic recession, the new personality and personal issues we are just realizing they exist and most importantly, how we may have been living a false life, full of unnecessary things we surround ourselves with. Then, and only then, after all these problems are solved - which is never - we can actually lift our eyes towards what is happening around us, and how people outside our circle are behaving, how this pandemic is influencing their daily lives and how this phenomenon will change their lives - not only ours - forever.
I can't really write a lot. I've been a bit sick and my family is ridden with the same sickness. I've spent most of my time taking care of them and allowing myself to get better - I'm anti-medicine - by not stressing, resting and letting my mind, which has been troubled and worried for the past 8 years, take a break.
I'm not sure how often I'll be able to write during the next few weeks but whenever I'm able to, I will, your comments will be appreciated.
For now, I gotta go, but let this thought be engraved in your brain: How much are you self absorbed and worried about your own issues, and how much are you not letting the outside problems and the societal phenomena happening around you influence your decisions? How much should you be aware of what is happening outside your bubble and how much should you let this influence your decisions, long term wise?
