An unusual day...

Last year was a hard year for everyone. It was the evening of Sunday, March 16 when the most unusual 24 hours of my life began. The government closed the country, the borders, the school, businesses, everything. We were listening to the President speak on the TV and we could not believe what was happening. My daughter was sitting in front of the TV until the president finished his speech, then she started crying when she heard she wasn't coming back to school. She spent a week without classes while the school planned what to do. My husband was calling his employees and told them to stay home while he figured out what to do. 

That Monday, we were shocked to discover that the world had changed. We woke up to silence and everything we had planned was put on hold indefinitely. That day, my parents were calling us to see how we were doing, how was my daughter? to ask if we were scared? I was wondering what was going to happen to life as we knew it.

If I had expected anything at all, it would have never been anything like this past year and a half. Me and my family had planned a trip to Europe for last June, and it's still on hold. I had adjusted to my regular and hectic life, and it was hard to adjust to silence, not going out and being scared. I had cried many times in silence, wondering when is this going to end?

This is our reality now, the unusual day has been going on for over a year now, and we can only hope we will get to see the end of this mess soon.
