Even when we sit passively in this pandemic, we still have a lot of stuff we can do

I must admit, there are a bunch of privileges I’m lucky to have: a roof over my head, an efficient heating and ventilating system; a speed Wi-fi connection, a functional laptop. Enough clothes to wear, various books to read. I feel, well, think that this is the life of privilege that many are dreaming of, whom are struggling in hospital to gasp their last bit of air, or fighting with the cold on the street because they have no job. This cruel world continues to roll, and therefore I must admit, I’m lucky to have these privileges. There is a war that is raging, and people’s lives are suffering. Is it cowardice of us that we are sheltered? Not really. Our lives are everything we have. While governments are working hard to protect us, we should do a better job at living healthier and better ourselves. We should take the responsibilities to live well and prosper. Once the pandemic is over for all, the bar will be lifted, and everything will up on the progressive track again.
