When COVID made me understand the simple life

When opening the packed wardrobe that is more crowded than people on the BTS train during rush hour and a lot of shoulder bags. Turned back to look at the other side, more than half a hundred of lipsticks, cosmetic pallets cluttered and dozens of pairs of shoes. All things have not been used or even been seen for months. In the end, people don't need anything more than basic needs, COVID whispered at my ear.


I'm not mad at you, COVID ... During the months that I work at home, without society, it makes me learn a lot.


Eating and thinning

I eat normal meals at home that my mom made repeated over two meals a day. Without ever thinking of relying on any food delivery. When opening the fridge to find items for fangs, only found watermelon and mango. At first, it didn't make me think of fancy expensive drinks or the delicious sweets that used to be easy to find and eat often. But now just two pieces of watermelon made me happy. The result is "thinness" that does not need to try hard with a flat belly that is normally hard to have. But now it comes by itself, just eat enough not to eat because of wanting.

Clothing, cosmetics that are many times more than necessary

Clothing, cosmetics that are many times more than necessary. On the day that we don't have to meet anyone, why don't we dress? Come back to discover that sometimes we do for society to allow people around you to see that we look good and acceptable. Do we care too much about society? Or is it really happy to "have" But why today, all the fancy clothes lose significance. Many people say there is no motivation. Don't know who to dress for. Finally, when looking back, it is just lust. Craving for acceptance competition. Which was followed by extravagance. The more people I have seen those affected, lose their jobs, lose their income. Which made me think that we should go back to a more "sufficiency" life Not stingy, but only necessary.

Can be happy without a shopping mall

In the beginning, it was almost boring. Like being broken from familiar things. Beautifully dressed, walking gloriously to see people, to see things. Buy some, not buy some, but get out of the house to the social. But today, when looking back, we can find happiness and pleasure in the home as well. When not needing to travel to work. Then took that time to do other activities at "home" Whether exercising, looking after trees, arranging a house, watching the news, reading books, talking with family members, or chat with some friends who haven't been in contact for a long time. And found that each day passed quickly as if lying Without having to complain that "bored". People do not always have to go out and look for happiness outside the home. Just looking at a positive perspective, being happy with what is a pleasure is easy to find. From things around.

Buy as needed

Online shopping, various promotions followed to haunt all the time.
Is sympathetic to them because it's the only way to do business now. But when staying only at home the mind then tells me why buy and when you will use it? But it does not mean buy anything at all. I just used a credit card to buy a new pan for my mom because the old one was broken. Buy because needed. Cosmetics, clothing that promotes various promotions, I am not interested at all ... tell myself, I already have more than enough.


The remaining salary in the account is increasing


When cutting unnecessary spending on both clothes Food to satisfy the appetite because it is delicious. Items that people have but really do not need. Eat just enough to fill, just to cover the body without being too overbearing. Found that the salary in the account almost stopped, almost never disappear. Okay, all the remaining money will be taken to go to pay for condos debt. Instead of squandering bring that money to make debt out faster.

Being so close to each other is not necessary to quarrel


Watching the news, he says that working at home together causes many couples to quarrel because they are together too much. From almost a month of experience, never argue or quarrel even once. It even must be close together for 24 hours. Have a private space for each other and let each person have their own moment. Respect working time or personal time and don't ask fussy. Talk to each other respectfully. Being on the same roof 24 hours a day is not a problem.


Nature has been restored.

This made the heart swell up. Upon hearing the news that the now-lost black-eyed shark returned to swim in Maya Bay again, it was also a large group. And NASA found that global ozone levels increased Photographs from outer space make the world look beautiful from another perspective. Although we have lost a lot of income from tourism. But in the same corner, the absence of tourists, even if only for months, helps nature to recover quickly. Maya beach looks peaceful and beautiful. A group of fish swims happily. It might be talking that thanks to COVID, who made Maya Bay return to their paradise.
