Fwd: Corona - Italy

From someone residing in Italy:

"Coronavirus in the region of Lombardia-Itália.
There are situations in life that are not expected, and the worst, in front of them, we are helpless.
I live in Como, in the area where the Coronavirus arrived without anyone waiting…
I correct, without anyone believing it, then wait, with so many Chinese people passing through northern Italy, we already expected it!
Closed schools, closed gyms, closed bars after 18:00, and so many, leaving the house only for what is strictly necessary.

It is a strange situation that leads us to revalue some things. At this time, having a nice car, an expensive pocketbook, wonderful clothes, they serve what? We would have no way to use or whom to show.

THE ONLY thing that happens to matter and that is asked of GOD is HEALTH. For yourself and for your loved ones.
In truth, how we spend time running back or asking GOD for things that don't help us at all, so many times !!!
As we are futile in most of the time! As we do not value or that is really so valuable!

We are at home. We invented games; Lunches and dinners become long and full of discussions between us, we laugh and cry together about problems and take care of each other.

No one has anywhere to go, or things to do. The lack of time FINISHED!

Locked up at home and "prisoners" because of Mr. CORONA VIRUS. That does us a great favor, despite everything. It frees us from ARROGANCE, because we see that we are nothing and we have no control of anything.

It frees us from ENVY, because we understand that it is useless. It shows us our vulnerability and then it shows us the way back to GOD.

In short, it helps us to perceive our individual "Prison" from day to day, due to the lack of time and having to contain our feelings.

And set us free. It leaves us FREE to be afraid, to feel helpless, not to run after anything ...
In the end, the only job we have or the only lesson at home is to try not to get sick ...

Also, and perhaps most importantly, it allows us to REWARD ourselves with our loved ones. Those with whom we live in the same house, we love, but many times we don't even talk to each other as we should: OUR FAMILY.

And finally, it makes us turn to GOD. In the end, in the face of our vulnerability, it is HE and only HE who can protect us ...

Taking a balance sheet, Mr. Corona virus can even kill us, but at the end of the day, he CERTAINLY teaches us to LIVE!!!"
