Staying home is what we all should do, if we are not needed outside in society. We should only go out to buy necessary food and medicine. Sadly, too many people still don´t get the message.
Why is it so difficult to stay home and be happy too? After all, all the working hours behind the newest gadgets for the home should be worth the trouble.
Staying home is to truly be yourself and to relax and enjoy the freedom. Outside activities must be released by inner reflections about choice of lifestyle.
It is about time that we humans calm down and try to see things through the perspective of Mother Earth. We have been conquering her long enough already.
We need to stop for a while and re-think the whole way that we do things. There is way to much egoistical behavior that only serve the further development of generations without care for others than themselves.
We have chosen a different path here. We speak the truth, no matter how tough it may be. We think twice before spending unnecessary money. And we live as simple and straightforward as possible.
And I listen carefully to the whining from places where they should know better. Please notice that we don´t experience that from weak and vulnerable people.
In Denmark, many people are considering going to their holiday homes at Easter soon. The police are asking them to really re-consider that choice of behavior.
I´m not happy about it. We have been told that stronger measures might be taken in use, if we didn´t listen right here and now. And the legislature behind is already available.
So what is it that makes it so extremely difficult to listen and to adapt to the new life situation for us all?
What is it that is so exciting or necessary that the rules are repeatedly broken?
And what is it that makes some people believe that they are entitled to behave grossly in a serious crisis where so many people die?
Living in a rich country is not necessarily an advantage. I´m sorry to say that our way of life throughout several decades now needs to grow up. Again, it is about choices and priorities.
But I hope that we in my country will continue to stay at home, as the big majority until now have done better by the day. The world don´t need unnecessary driving right now.
The weather is foretold to be more than fair, and that has always made the most of us go out and enjoy it.
We can still do that, through the windows. I have a big garden, so I´m blessed. I appreciate it so much more this year. I know that if quarantined, I will have to look at it from inside my home.
I have always had flowers and plants in my life, whether living in big house as now or in the past in small apartments. I have always tried to use what I had before I bought something new.
I don´t chase the golden calf anymore, however. I don´t go out much either. Only if I have to or if we are on a trip with the kids. So this new lifestyle of staying home suits me well.
I just wish that it didn´t have to be a deadly virus that brought people together, only apart. We humans have so much potential, so why spill all the talents on hanging on to old and past ideas that are not good for anybody anyway?
We need to conquer ourselves before trying to restore a new normal that will be the consequence also many years from now. We need to ask ourselves questions about the ways we choose to live our lives.
And we need to stop being so egoistical and careless because this virus don´t care about us at all. It is just there and suddenly everywhere. A dangerous visitor, our Majesty the Queen warned us about.
It is also about moral dilemmas. Can we conquer ourselves enough not to do stupid and dangerous things? For once, we truly have the chance to try it out for real. So I hope that most people will listen and that the behavior of the few stand out for us all to watch.
Let the good examples thrive and keep on inspiring millions of people worldwide. Let this crisis be the lesson to learn from in the future. And let this virus die out soon. So mote it be.
