I almost gave in last night. Got impatient, not happy about what’s happening, feel like the world’s against me, not wanting to do anything. Fortunately, this morning when I woke up I started to sing in the shower and become much better. I began to do some constructive things: a little bit of housework, learn French, play the piano and now writing. Sometimes, it’s just a remembrance of what works for me, and knowing that if I don’t help myself nobody can, then things turn around and I am happy again. I know this lockdown can do a lot of damage to people like me but keeping strong, keeping patient are the best things to do.
昨天晚上我哭了,我真想放棄一切。幸好今早醒來,起床後,在淋浴時唱歌。然後做了一點家務、溫習了法文、彈了琴,然後拾起筆再寫作。就是這些活動加上耐性把我再活起來,又過一關了!我們如果自己不幫自己,那什麼都幫不了。
