Health is the most important thing we have in our lives in order to survive in this life. The world is full of plagues, viruses, cancer, bacteria, rare diseases, that one does not know what to do anymore. One of the main evils that has this world is the man Yes!! man has been very good for many things but for others has been very bad, very destructive.
I have come to the conclusion that if man really used all his intelligence to care for and preserve this planet, everything would be easier.
Man has created wonderful things, that is to say, he has the intelligence and the capacity to develop whatever he wants. If we start to see this panorama from the point of view of philosophy, we can realize that man goes as far as he wants and beyond. Sometime someone might have thought that we were going to reach the moon, that we were going to cross the seas, or discover what was in the depths of the sea. That is to be congratulated to all those who have set out to do so.
I also see it from this point of view, man does not stop, he is always looking for more! someday someone created a wooden staircase, then they made it out of metal, they saw that this was good and that they could go up as far as they wanted and so they went for more; then they made the electric stairs to go up faster or simply not to sweat or get tired when going up, but even there the ingenuity of man did not remain, they invented something to save more energy and go up even faster and they invented the elevator.
Nobody wants to make an effort anymore, we want everything to be done quickly, at the speed of light, without many complications. Don't you think it's better what it costs us? Isn't it better when you get something because you've earned it with the sweat of your brow?
Now what are they going to invent to keep us from climbing the hill? Ahhh yes, they already invented it!! They made a cable car!!
I go back and say, some things are good and some not so good.
Already in this generation what predominates is ambition, selfishness, irony and arrogance. Almost nobody believes in God anymore and they only remember him when they need something or see themselves in a real predicament.
Now that we are immersed in this situation where our health is compromised and that of our family and friends, we should take advantage of it to get closer to him, maybe reading the scriptures will help you clarify a little the doubts, in the bible you can find our history, where we came from, who were our patriarchs, prophets, and what happened when Jesus Christ came to the world.
It is already Thursday of Holy Week or Easter, this time we will not be able to attend church as is our custom, but in the house we can also do it, no need for anyone to see us, just take a moment of your time and talk to God, think about everything that bothers you and tell Him. In these days we remember all that Jesus Christ, the beloved son, lived, all the passion and suffering that he had to suffer for us, to redeem us from our sins.
This is definitely the path we should take, it is not at all complicated or steep like the previous path. Here you are only the guide of your life and it is easy to do it, you just have to propose it.
The one who is on God's side feels peace, calm, inner silence, feels happiness and reflects it to others. The path you choose is the one you want to walk, so they talk about free will, they say that God left the free will for you to choose where to go. He doesn't want to be a tyrannical father, nor a punisher, this is where I come back and say, it's us, it's man who does these things (covid-19), all out of ambition or power.
This initiative by has made me think about something I hadn't even thought of yet, I imagine that some of us will agree on the selection of our first wishes and others will go further. For example if I asked my husband, I think and I'm more than sure he would answer _"Go to work!"
"First wish"
With God's favor if we come out of all this well, the first thing I want to do is go and thank God, go to Mass and open my arms of joy before him, thank him for having my children well, for being with my husband and having successfully overcome this pandemic.
I would also like to thank for all that survived around the world and give a minute of my time to pray for those who did not have the same fate, in fact I do not have to wait to do that, from my tiredness I ask God for the eternal rest of all those people whose lives were consumed by the virus.

"Second wish"
Getting back together with my family and friends, that would be a good thing as soon as I get out of all this. I would like to prepare a nice meal, maybe some soup and invite everyone who wants to come, I would like to give them a hug, ask them to forgive me if I have ever offended them and tell them that I love them with all my heart.
This is definitely a great opportunity for us to reflect, to think about all those things we have done wrong and to correct our mistakes.
"Third wish"
There are many things that I want but let's express only 3 for now, my third desire is to go out, walk with my family, I want to go to the beach, a park or the mountains, breathe fresh air, feel the breeze of the wind touching my skin, walk, exercise, feel, that's what I want to feel that I am alive and that thanks to God we are well, we are alive and we will move forward.
For now we just have to keep taking care of ourselves, keep protecting our families and neighbors. I hope and trust God to count on the statistics of those of us who survived this evil. Thank God in Venezuela this scourge has not hit much and most of those who remain in special quarantine are coming out of it.
Let's move forward, let's not despair, the protection is in your hands, follow the prevention measures and remember,
"Stay at home"
