I can't believe I haven't written a post at Hive for 40 days, but I think it's time to end this "quarantine". In three years, I haven't spent so much time away from Hive but it was a necessary break. I needed it. I needed to sort out my thoughts and emotions in order to be able to write with peace of mind. The last few weeks have been intense.
The situation of the country on the one hand. The uncertainty, the sadness and the fear because the truth is that we live with a latent fear, which is there silently and to which unfortunately as to so many other things we will end up getting used to. On the other hand, at home there have been some changes, positive yes, but important changes that bring with them anxiety. To make a long story short, my husband was presented with a good opportunity for a temporary job out of town. He's already there and I'll soon follow. But this unexpected temporary move has me upside down doing a thousand things that I don't want to leave up in the air before I leave home for a while. And I have a lot of mixed emotions.
But despite the hustle and bustle I'm still trying to take the best possible care of my health. To take my walks in the mountains whenever the opportunity arises. Now that my husband is away, I always go with a friend. So I break the silence of the last few weeks and try to get back into the rhythm on Hive by sharing some images of one of those hikes I have taken in the last few days.
A hike, one of those afternoons in Caracas with a beautiful light as the sunset was approaching. My friend L and her faithful companion Choco at the viewpoint of the reserve known as La Fila, contemplating the view.
The view that always fills me with energy. Clouds or no clouds. Any time of the day. Believe me this view is infallible to recharge your batteries when you feel that your world is a little upside down. Seeing those mountains and taking a deep breath brings you back to serenity.
From there, the valley of Caracas always looks imposing with that beautiful mountain that surrounds us. My loved mountain, El Avila.
The privilege of having this view a few steps from home is not just anything. Definitely something I will miss in a few weeks.
These walks are one of my favorite things to do for exercise and I'm sure Choco feels the same way.
So I'm still around and I hope to be around for a long time. And for sure, I will be telling you more about the imminent movements in my life in the next days.
Thank you for reading!
