#WritcoStoryPrompt26
“Isn’t this exciting?” My best friend’s excited eyes flit around the dazzling stores on the main street.
“I suppose so.”
My unenthusiastic reply had her turning to me with a frown. “What’s the matter? Aren’t you happy to be out shopping after so many months?”
I shook my head feeling miserable. I could feel the panic rise up so I pretended to search my pockets for my sanitizer. When I found it I poured it liberally over my hands and rubbed them together. There was no room for error, the virus was still around, terrifying us. This terrorism was spread everywhere and it created me a strange feeling, I couldn't go out without worrying, I couldn't hug with my loved ones neither kiss them, I couldn't live like this, it was and still is something new, strange. Sometimes I'm wondering that if someone, or something is looking us from above, we may seems ridiculous; our reactions, our actions, our non-actions. But we're human, we're all human that's something we undoubtedly have in common so we are making mistakes , maybe we don't release that immediately and then we do and we're trying to fix it, then we fix it and me made another one or the same again and its a vicious cycle, but at the same time THIS IS LIFE. So I decided to go out of home, adapt im the new reality or at least try to, and live my life . We cannot let a virus or a person or a fact or even ourselves sometimes, to build walls and prevent us from living. Maybe we need to step back and watch ourselves and our lives at this moment, at this particular moment of confusion, fear, anxiety and uncertainty. Are we happy? If we're not what we need to do about it? What we need to change? The dark times is the best times for change and that's why they're dark to lead us to the light. This virus is not something good but it depends on us if we let this affect our whole life and do what it wants and is our hand to not let that happen . May our physical health is not entirely in our own control, but our phsycological it is . We choose how we will react and if we change the way of our reaction to the best possible we can change our whole lives and of course our perspective to every single thing. We all have fears, fear of unknown, fear of known fear of losing people but when we release that this is nothing but our fears we set ourselves free, we liberate, and believe me WE DESERVE THIS.
P.S. I'm not saying that the virus is not real or that it's not dangerous I'm saying that it's not entirely in our hands to become ill but it is in our control to not let our soul be affected these tough times . Thank you and remember we're all in this together 💚
