These are times that are not ours! “These are dark times, there is no denying it…” (Albus Dumbledore -Harry Potter)

These are times that are not ours! “These are dark times, there is no denying it…” (Albus Dumbledore -Harry Potter)

These times are very demonstrative as the current society is completely vulnerable to an event that comes out of the predictability of the “ordinary things of the day” and we are led to think that all this is nothing more than “the power of nature”!
Being sure that nature, over the centuries, has been a source of observation and inspiration for the most creative and even in the way we manage our health, we must also have the perception, which does not always happen, that there are other forces of energy that destroys and devastates us, caused by our inability to change the inertia that settles in our lives.
And so, suddenly, this “crisis of lack of technical means” that involves people's health, and which already reaches gigantic proportions, started to determine our day to day influencing and in what way all our personal relationships. How long will all this last?
This morning a friend said to me: “I did not stop giving my daughter a kiss when I took her to school!”, Or when “in conversation with the group of everyday friends, we did not shake hands like this greeting is usual! ” That is, whether we like it or not, our daily lives are strongly conditioned, schools close, shows are canceled, “we have adopted” a defensive “choreography” in personal relationships, we live in a kind of “war” atmosphere, with the strange feeling that people's rights have come to the background, conditioned by what appears as an unavoidable imperative. We entered a visible “state of exceptionality”.
“They took away the“ handshake ”that is a formal greeting or greeting in our culture, wants to take away a simple gesture, but full of feelings, the hug that means affection, love, affection and friendship, and a terrible prohibition of a show of affection between people as it is a kiss used by family, friends, parents and children, couples and that means affection, respect and affection for another person, being considered as the greatest gesture of affection, love and passion between a couple . What remains for us humans? In fact, there is something terribly fascinating about nature, which we have yet to glimpse !!!
Are we overreacting with all of our fears? It may be, but it may not. In reality we have to “face”, because it enters into our lives inside without asking for authorization, the countless “opinions” of people “dressed up” as specialists that flood our written and spoken press, especially the televisions, being obvious that nobody you know, for sure, for how long and with what dimensions, the present crisis will ultimately mark our lives. It is curious to observe now, these attitudes comparing them with the “political motivations that fanned us and stole the pockets, years ago” with some more shameless comments, with a cold cruelty of differentiation of age risks: the “so-called“ gray plague ” they will be the hardest hit, as they say "the law of life", intimately adopting a kind of terminal justice judgment, which, like the "so-called financial crisis", affects them!
It is certain that many people are stunned by the unknowns, which gives us the observation of the alien images of this new “time of the plague”, with the intimate hope that everything is just an exaggeration, that we can avoid this virus, us and our . After all, we think, there have been crises of this nature in the past - and here we are to count them. “There will be nothing”, say the most optimistic, convinced that, with the heat, the virus will leave the scene. "This could be the devil", the skeptics will grumble, I would say that perhaps it is "in the midst of virtue". For the end I can't help but ask this question: Who is laughing at these games?
