I never imagined that we would live in a moment like this, where we find ourselves totally defenseless, against an invisible and very dangerous threat. Six months ago our life was different, we could meet our friends, get out of the case, go to parties, cinemas, in short; we were free. At that time I had difficulties in seeing the privilege of freedom and happiness, but the last two months have made me a changed human being.
I had a hard time finding happiness in the small things in life. Always expect to feel the general concept of happiness, which is something very difficult to achieve and that's why I always felt unhappy, because I didn't have, like most people, complete happiness. However, with the arrival of the coronavirus, we saw our lives threatened, our routines changed and our liberties limited, since in the name of our health, we should stay at home.
This period allowed me to rethink my own concepts, I was able to change terrible opinions that I didn't have time to reflect because of the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Those two months changed my perception of the world and of myself. I hope that this reflexive moment that my life took turns me, really, into a better human being, more conscious and rational, so that when our lives return to normal, I can be someone who makes positive differences in the lives of everyone around me.
Decide is the correct meaning of the word settle.
Dear Gr 12 learner, I bet you've heard the phrase "with great powers comes great responsibilities." This phrase is very true, especially at that moment in life that you are living in, where your greatest power is freedom. My advice to you is that you take advantage of this moment and use the freedom that is offered to you, but don't forget the responsibility that comes with it and that responsibility is to maintain responsible behavior.
Freedom is a privilege held with responsibility. For this, it is important that you understand that there are situations that are not appropriate, beneficial and progressive which you should not get involved in and act responsibly to avoid them, thus maintaining not only your freedom, but your moral and physical integrity , as well as your safety.
Freedom with responsibility is not difficult, it will be necessary for you to stay focused on good things, in addition to maintaining the trust of those who allow you to have access to freedom. In that case, I need to issue a second piece of advice, which is to always ask older and more experienced people about what behavior to adopt in situations that you think might lead you to irresponsibility.
I believe that with this advice you will make very good and uplifting decisions.
