Every crisis has something positive in itself because it forces us to ask questions that we probably did not ask before. And only by formulating new questions we can obtain new answers and grow as citizens, as a world, as human beings. So this would be the first great opportunity that comes from a crisis. And this is no exception, this pandemic that we are experiencing. On the other hand, this health crisis makes us realise that we are not so different from each other. Yes, we are different by culture, by social class, by opportunities, on many occasions, unfortunately, different. But in this case of health, in this specific case of the pandemic, we are not different from each other, we are equally weak. We are equally vulnerable. Because we are obsolete, because we are finite, because we are human. And the pandemic does not choose this or that group of people. We are equally vulnerable and therefore we have much more in common than aspects that can differentiate us from each other. Secondly, this pandemic makes us realise the importance of time. Time is something limited and that we cannot buy. And we live in a world where we waste too much time. Or rather, in which we do not enjoy it as it deserves. Life is a gift to be lived, to be used and we waste too much time. On the other hand, another opportunity that we can see in this pandemic is the willingness to discover others as an opportunity in itself. We live too much in our indifference, in our selfishness, in our interests, ideas and goals. Others will be part of our lives and now we miss them. Then, let this pandemic help us long for each other and thus build a different world, more human, more of God certainly.
