RE: Summer Is A Long Way Away, And Yet...

Ah, dogs. They can't sit still for hours, they need walking to do their ... things, and don't care war or not. But they were also scared. I remember 2 elder women with dogs were often with me in a basement.

People just want to live somehow. It is impossible to be constantly afraid or live in a basement for 10 months. Those who were very afraid left. Those who remained adapted. The cinema has a shelter and a generator. If the power is turned off, they turn on generator. An air raid starts - everything stops, everyone goes to shelter. But in fact, a lot of people lost their jobs.

Sort:  

I know how it is with dogs, I've had a few myself. We have to adapt too, humans adapt pretty quickly, and that's good for survival. I forgot about this aspect... I imagine many jobs have disappeared, I wonder how people live without an income. Perhaps there is some help for them?

Martial law is different. All I know there is some finansial help for those who was forced to move from their homes, inside of the country. But it's not a big.money at all, and payed for few months. War is incredibly expensive ((( Army's first, and then civilians. Difficult but forced choise.

Your words about cinemas and all such made me thinking a lot. On the very first days, all daily stuff seemed weird. Even preparing meal. Even a call from a hospital with a reminder about an appointment. Everything seemed unappropriate. But day by day, months by months, you have a choise to adopt or go crazy...

I understand what's going on with you, I hope you get used to normal life as soon as possible, as it was before.
