~:[CH9 - Day 364]:~ Forget the Mirage
Tough times make people look forward to better days ahead. As they search and hope for that moment, they miss out on the opportunities that sprout out around them. I understand that some people don't have the luxury as they're focused on survival, but for those of dreaming of where to go next, don't miss out on what's in front of you now. From exploring things you were always interested in to catching up on the things you put to the side, for those who are lucky enough to be locked in at home, use the time wisely. Instead of driving through traffic or spending all that cash on concerts, vacations and events, maybe now you can find ways to spend that time wisely and also that money. I know that those who can think about these things are privileged, but it's also a reason why we should. Can we better ourselves and use that development to later help others? Can we make more money and have more on hand to donate to those in need or support a small restaurant? I often have to catch myself because I am always look ahead and trying to countdown to the day where I can get back into the swing of things, but I also need to forget that mirage that distracts me and enjoy this quality time I have to spend with my parents and to do the things I never had time to do before. Those better days ahead, they will come, but for now, see it as a mirage and put it at the back of your mind so that you don't keep hoping for those days to come and start living in the days that are passing you by.
