La vida, el mundo, el planeta nos ha dicho PARA, DETENTE, RELÁJATE, PIENSA. Ha puesto en nuestro camino algo que no podemos ver pero que da mucho más miedo que si fuera visible. Nos ha puesto a prueba y nos ha desprovisto de lo más importante que antes teníamos y que ahora no podemos disfrutar... El contacto humano.
Eso que no vemos nos ha dado a cambio lo que antes tanto echábamos en falta, TIEMPO.
Y ahora que podemos hacer todo lo que antes no podíamos, que no tenemos que correr, nos ha obligado y castigado a quedarnos solos. Ahora sólo tenemos tiempo, ahora nos acordamos de esa última comida familiar, de ese último beso a tu pareja, de ese último abrazo a tus amigos. Ahora todo ese tiempo que antes ansiábamos no nos sirve para nada.
Salimos a la calle con miedo, nos tapamos la cara, nos alejamos de las personas, no queremos tocar nada que no sea nuestro. Nos hemos deshumanizado. Todo lo que antes hacíamos con prisa y sin darle importancia HOY cobra un sentido diferente.
Antes de ese día deseábamos llegar a casa y quedarnos allí, en nuestra zona de confort, seguros, protegidos, solos... Y no pasaba nada. Era lo que queríamos en ese momento, descansar y no pensar en nada.
Hoy, eso que no vemos, nos recluye en casa y nos aísla del resto de personas. Nos miramos desde los balcones, desde las ventanas, y todos pensamos lo mismo... Por qué nunca hemos valorado tener la libertad que hoy nos arrebatan, por qué hoy cobra otro sentido un "luego nos vemos y tomamos algo", un "ven a casa que te invito a comer", un "vamos a pasar el finde fuera de casa"... Por qué cuando teníamos tiempo no hacíamos todo lo que podíamos y ahora tampoco podemos hacerlo????
Lección de vida importante, el tiempo no da la felicidad si careces de las personas con las cuales lo quieres compartir. El tiempo no sirve de nada si nada puedes hacer.
No sabemos cuánto tiempo tendremos que estar confinados, recluidos, aislados y solos. No sabemos qué hacer hoy, no sabemos si de repente nos van a decir que nos aprovisionemos y nos encerremos en casa indefinidamente... No quiero pensar que eso suceda.
Lo que sí sé, es que tarde o temprano volveré a salir sin miedo a la calle, a cara descubierta. Abrazaré con fuerza a toda mi familia, acariciaré como si se parara el mundo a la persona que quiero y besaré a todos mis amigos porque me he dado cuenta de que el tiempo no era el problema, y de que poder estar juntos sin miedo a nada es lo más importante.
Ahora tengo todo el tiempo del mundo, no os tengo a tod@s vosotr@s y no soy feliz.
No sabéis qué ganas tengo de que la vida vuelva a ser normal, de coger el coche, de pasear de la mano, de vivir en compañía todos esos momentos que antes me llegué a negar a mi misma y que ahora se nos niegan por nuestra salud y la de los que nos rodean.
Esta corona de espinas que llevamos todos nos la podremos quitar, volveremos a ser libres y saldremos a la calle de nuevo valorando y apreciando cada momento que vivamos, porque esa corona no es más que una prueba que nos pone la vida para que aprendamos que el tiempo y el dinero no sirven de nada si no podemos compartirlo.
Sentir, abrazar, besar, tocar... Podremos hacerlo de nuevo pero con mucho más sentimiento porque ya sabemos cuánto se sufre cuando no puedes hacerlo.
Until March 14, 2020 we have spent our lives complaining about everything. We didn't have enough time to do everything we wanted. We did not walk, we ran to get to all places, always in a hurry, getting up early to organize our lives, to have more time. Concerned we were thinking about the car if we had left something important at home. We were almost always late for any appointment we had, stressed. We were not even able to enjoy that moment when we had already reached our destination because we kept thinking about everything we had to do the next day.
Life, the world, the planet has told us to STOP, RELAX, THINK. It has put in our path something that we cannot see but that is much more scary than if it were visible. It has put us to the test and deprived us of the most important thing that we had before and that now we cannot enjoy ... Human contact.
That which we do not see has given us in return what we previously missed so much, TIME.
And now that we can do everything we couldn't do before, that we don't have to run, it has forced and punished us to be alone. Now we only have time, now we remember that last family meal, that last kiss to your partner, that last hug to your friends. Now all that time that we wanted before is useless to us.
We go out into the street with fear, we cover our faces, we move away from people, we don't want to touch anything that is not ours. We have become dehumanized. Everything we used to do in a hurry and without giving it importance TODAY takes on a different meaning.
Before that day we wanted to get home and stay there, in our comfort zone, safe, protected, alone ... And nothing happened. It was what we wanted at that moment, rest and not think about anything.
Today, that which we do not see, secludes us at home and isolates us from other people. We look at each other from the balconies, from the windows, and we all think the same ... Why we have never valued having the freedom that is taken from us today, why today it takes on another meaning, "then we will see each other and take something", "come home I invite you to eat ", " let's spend the weekend away from home "... Why when we had time we did not do everything we could and now we can not do it ????
Important life lesson, time does not give happiness if you lack the people with whom you want to share it. Time is useless if you can do nothing.
We do not know how long we will have to be confined, secluded, isolated and alone. We do not know what to do today, we do not know if they will suddenly tell us to stock up and lock ourselves in the house indefinitely ... I do not want to think that will happen.
What I do know is that sooner or later I will go out again without fear into the street, with my face uncovered. I will hug my entire family tightly, I will caress as if the world stops the person I love and I will kiss all my friends because I have realized that time was not the problem, and that being able to be together without fear of anything is the most important.
Now I have all the time in the world, I do not have all of you and I am not happy.
You don't know what I want to see life return to normal, to take the car, to walk hand in hand, to live in company with all those moments that I previously denied myself and that now are denied to us for our health and that of those who surround us.
This crown of thorns that we all wear we can take off, we will be free again and we will go out into the street again appreciating and appreciating every moment we live, because that crown is nothing more than a test that life puts on us so that we learn that the Time and money are useless if we can't share it.
Feel, hug, kiss, touch ... We can do it again but with much more feeling because we already know how much we suffer when you cannot do it.
