Okay so there I was, a whole 2 and a half month through what I fell is going to be my breakout year. I’m talking everything from balanced fitness diet and workout plans, living up my last semester with my college friends and preparing for a new job that will catapult my sales career. BOY was I wrong about how this year was going to end up. Little did everyone consciously living through this time know, it was over before it started.
You remember in grade school you would have to sit through history class and hear about things like the Black Plague and the Great Depression and things of that nature? Yea, well me too, and I realized that we living through history ourselves. Like really, yea our grandparents and them had a hard life without mobility and tech, but I can’t help but think that we are writing a long history book ourselves.
I wonder if history flew by this fast in the past. One second I’m bringing in the new year with my girl then next day boom! I just got word we dropped an Air strike. Like hold up, woah, okay, this isn’t a dream. I kid you not, I was prepared for a crazy year. Little did I know, it was about to get even more crazy. If trump actually winning presidency wasn’t crazy enough, he actually got DENIED his impeachment. As if word of a Russian internet hacking agency isn’t enough to draw skepticism.
The political world ain’t the only ones who had their heart crushed this year. we lost a historical figure and leader when we speak about Kobe and GiGi Bryant’s death. Although it was very fulfilling how they got to spend their last hours together, a HELICOPTER!? So much of that just doesn’t make sense to me, but I digress.
I’m also frustrated at the fact that we spent out whole lives fearing a zombie or alien apocalypse only to find out that our lives changed all because of a virus that has symptoms of a common cold. I’m just saying, this is some historical stuff we are talking about here. It doesn’t just happen everyday. We live such a fast life that we rarely ever stop to look and see all that has been done.
Even in that, I feel like this is going to be a great year and we will all survive. The world is starving because of loss and havoc. That is why we must feed it love continuously. The world isn’t perfect but it’s worth being proud of. We won’t always have it all, but we can be grateful for having what we do. I think the world is trying to get us to step back and look at the bigger picture. The corona virus is worth being cautious, but in that cause, look at the effect. People who spend time on the road often are spending times with their family again and working from home. This can force our hand in mobility platforms and be a breakthrough for work life balance. I don’t know though. I just try to look at the post it is side of things and it usually helps me survive.
