Why do I feel bored?

Have you ever heard an introvert say they feel alone or craving attention? Introverts love to be alone and don't feel bothered. But this quarantine makes me wonder why I feel so bored!

Since March, we have been in a semi-lockdown. It's a partial lockdown. We can go to work if your work is essential or other places are closed. You can also go for walks, keeping the 1,5 m distance rule. If you don't keep it or the other rules you can get up to 400 euros in fine. So, what do you do when you're at home? You're trapped in your house for who knows how long?

For me, staying at home is fine. The problem is that I'm forced to stay home because of a "deadly" virus. Controlling the virus is entirely understandable, but staying home for an extended period is causing more harm than good. Thanks to the news, many healthy people are at home in fear that they can get the virus if they go out. Other people are getting depressed and bored while the economy is collapsing. At least there is something good; the rivers are clean again, less pollution, etc. Lockdown has been considered a miracle for the climate to "recuperate." Well, we are the virus. We are the cause of pollution; we are the cause of global warming. We, humans, are destroying the world!

The push is for only together we can fight against this virus. Is it worth losing everything to save your life or live "comfortably"? Is it worth it to give my privacy away for "safety"? Is it worth becoming a spy on your neighbor for the sake of "protecting" yourself? Is it worth trusting your government when they don't care for you? What more do we need to lose?

When everything is uncertain, it is the moment to trust the Lord as never before. The time to study His word and apply it. Never let a good opportunity go to waste. There are people out there that need hope. They are in fear! Be the light for the people around you.

It is also the time to learn skills, read books, and investigate instead of watching news and series.

Stay focused, and Stay Healthy!
