A Short walk

Since the outbreak of this pandemic, I have limited my outings as much as possible. I do not feel sad, or angry but pretty rejuvenated. This is the first time in some time that I actually have gotten the most sleep and the most time I have spent in a rented apartment for sometime.

Even though I am feeling well rested, I feel restless and for that reason I decided to pace to and from my kitchen to the bathroom. I have a pretty short hall way which each morning I get up and put my headsets on and start walking till it is 7:20 pm or 7:35 to shower and start my day. . during those walks I notice the floor skirt, the pictures I have had up for some time, and the thoughts I am left with the evaluate how I am and what is going on in my head. Sometimes, I put music or an audible book but most of the time it starts with my brain waking up a little and to review what I am feeling and how I am doing. Those short walks give me the time to breathe, and reflect on my relationships with my friends, my family and with myself.

I normally would go on a walk before this pandemic, but when I would go for a walk I would need to hurry up to get going to go and rush to shower and head over to work, but when I take a walk in the house I feel like I am revisiting my own mind to see where I am and is this where I want to be and in those small walks I realize the little things that I am so grateful for, and yet I think of all the things that are not going well in the world and that have not been going well. This pandemic should open our eyes not for just this year, this month or this day but for future years to come.

I feel like each and every human being in this planet is a super hero and we need to wake up, take a walk in our own house and visit each spot to familiarize ourselves with our own homes and to get a better understanding of the house, ourselves and the world. We can no longer just live without opening our eyes, will you take a walk with me tomorrow, or the day after and think some things that needs to be thought of and plan. Let us do this and make some thing happen not just for now but for many years to come.
