(ES) Gabriela encourages to reassess oneself

Published: June 1, 2020, 8 a.m.

My name is Gabriela, I'm from Chile, I was living a little more than a year in Portugal, and in January, February, I moved to Germany, on a working holiday. I went back to Chile to leave my things and to see my family two months to later go back to work, and unfortunately or perhaps for the better, the coronavirus situation happened while I was here. I am from Valparaiso, and well I am very grateful that I have been here with my family. Obviously going to Germany and starting from scratch with little contacts there, the situation would have been perhaps less easy, so this is a very positive aspect. And the rest, really, gives material to a lot of analysis, everything that we are living, on a political and social level... I do hope that this situation serves to rethink things, on a personal level, because obviously the other situations, rather political aspects and more, is beyond our reach, but internally I think it is a favourable moment to reassess ourselves, make decisions, and try to see what aspect we can improve, taking advantage of all the time we have available now. So my message is that, that we take a little time to analyze what we want, what we can improve and be grateful for the time we have now with our loved ones.
