Should have written this
long time ago
but anywhere
*
February was a long month
subjected to loads
uncertainty, concern
and even fear
*
back then
it wasn’t called a pandemic
and it was a regional issue
*
it was Lunar New Year
in late January
the first 4 days of Feb
was spent in Southern Taiwan
*
lovely weather
sunny and chilly
but the air was a bit tensed
where everyone was
putting on a mask
*
then a subsequent Samui trip
was cancelled
because my parents
didn’t feel okay with it
*
so i chose not to go
even if my friends did go ahead
but all they did was
chilling around the villa
no beach no sightseeing
*
then another short
weekend concert trip
got cancelled as well
the event had been postponed
but no specific date
has been announced yet
after so long
*
and a refund is in process
but i kinda fear for the worst
*
but thank goodness
sales was pretty good
not common for a February
it kept me occupied
throughout the “dark” moments
given all the cancellation
and of course not forgetting
Valentine’s day
*
so it wasn’t as bad
after all
*
and i adopted a change of
“being” in the neighborhood
taking my nephews for walk
going to the local market
driving my mom out on
Sunday morning
*
kinda miss those now
given the fact that
we are now on a 4 week
movement restriction order
in day 12th now
*
during heightened period like this
trip cancellation doesn’t sound
as important anymore
*
thank you February
for the trial period
knowing the fact that
i couldn’t travel as much
*
now that we can’t even travel
out of the house
unless necessary
*
activities have been
further downscaled
from neighborhood to
house compound
doing things like
clearing old stuff
sweeping leaves
bed-time reading
*
hope for the best
for everyone
*
