The Best and Worst of People in Confinement by Covid 19
Yes gentlemen, today we come with new reflections on confinement. And, as every week, today I reflect on these lines reflections that I have done throughout these days. They are not an absolute truth. Not at all. Nor do they claim to be. I only leave my vision reflected throughout these weeks that are happening and I understand that there will be aspects with which you can share your opinion with me and others with whom you do not.
One of the things I have been reflecting on the most these days is that these moments of crisis bring out "the best and the worst of people". And this is so. Is a reality.
We have seen how companies like Baby suite have started to release quality sports maintenance content for pregnant women completely free of charge. We have seen how Green corners gave point and part to its production to produce masks. Like other mompreneurs like Minishuu they gave a% of their sales to projects to help the coronavirus. And we have also produced masks for the local hospital where we are.
The virtual community has been filled with entertainment proposals for adults and children. Large publishers sharing their virtual magazines for free. Great signs of solidarity have been shown. Friends we know who brighten up their neighbors' vermouth time with songs "on the terrace". And this is wonderful. This makes your heart glad.
Virtual joy is shared and runs throughout the world. But do you know what caught my attention? That globalization is real and very beautiful when everything goes well. But when things go wrong ... where do we look? To home. I explain. Most of the solidarity donation projects that have been carried out have been carried out in nearby projects. In other words, we have donated masks to the hospital in our area. First, because it is where we are physically and it is where we can collaborate. But the same goes for large donations. Amancio Ortega, one of the richest men in the world, to which country have you donated your efforts? Spain. And it is not a criticism, because for me it is the most normal thing. Because really where we live is where we have our roots, where we know the majority of people, it is, really, what matters to us and where we want to help. But, we must not forget that this is a GLOBAL crisis. It affects everyone. And the solutions are probably going to have to be global. Are we going to be able to manage our deepest instincts to have a global vision? I do not know. I don't even know if the human being is capable of doing it, instinctively speaking. What do you think?
Another human behavior that has saddened me these days have been the videos that have been posted on the networks where an entire neighborhood insulted someone on the street because they believed that “confinement was being skipped”. Or the situation that has come where the neighbors themselves call to denounce other neighbors. Do you know what it reminds me of? To the spanish civil war. My final baccalaureate work was a compilation of experiences of older people who had lived through the civil war, where they told me about their experience at this time. And, do you know what they highlighted the most? That there was a war between neighbors. That they denounced the opposing parties among themselves, and many times it was because they did not like each other (without grounds for denunciation). Well, in this situation I am reliving this feeling. What are we doing? What is this? Do we really need to yell at a mom / dad who is dating a child? Can't we respect that maybe that child has an urgent need to get out after being CLOSED WEEKS? Do you really have to go with a blue scarf so you know he's different?
This has been one of the reactions of the population that has most disappointed me. I have heard about cases of autistic children who insult them on the street, children with ADHD, adults who HAVE to walk because of their cancer treatment… all of them INSULTED BY THE STREETS BY THEIR OWN NEIGHBORS. Denounced. And that when the police come to them, without a doubt, they are right and offer help if they need something while they continue walking among insults. For me this little empathy is not justified. You have to be empathetic, you have to be rational.
And so far our reflection today. Thanks for being here. Thanks for reading and if you want to share any reflection you can do it on my Instagram or Facebook account.
Many families encouragement. A hug.
