My ordinary day.

Every day brings its own teaching, every day we enjoy the good things that everyday life gives us. There are days that are bad according to each person's point of view, but I am one of those who think that we can make the most of even from the bad things.

I like my day to day. I am busy all day long, but even though I don't do the cleaning or the laundry or the ironing, because thank God I pay someone else to do those chores. My days are busy.

I usually wake up at 6 am. The earliest is 5.30am.  All at once I turn on my laptop and go straight to the kitchen to put some water on for my coffee and I go straight to the shower.

When I get out of there the water is already boiled and I can make my coffee. I go to my room, get dressed and my laptop is already fully charged and has wifi connection... Yes the signal is coming! If it's an ordinary day the wifi will come when it seems best and in the meantime I am writing my posts in drafts for when the wifi signal arrives.

When I finish my drafts and the internet connection has arrived. I go to the translator and start translating, then publishing, commenting and voting on my platforms. That is if I don't get hung up on the wifi as its signal is now.

But nothing stops me, because while I am doing these things, I am also waiting for patients to arrive at my office, I don't waste my hours waiting looking at the ceiling or the wall.

Then there is the activity with my plants, just yesterday I planted and transplanted many of them, my cacti and succulents, so that in a week they will be ready for sale. They’re plants that I have in a seedbed, set aside and cared for so that I need to do is just transplant them into a separate pot and within a week they are already fixed in the ground and ready for sale.

Then there’s the breakfast, lunch and dinner that I give between each of my aforementioned activities.

I generally don't take naps because my brain stays very alert and doesn't allow me to sleep during the day, except for special situations when I go out to the street to run errands and the exposure to the burning sun for long hours doesn’t allow me to stand up as usual because my body is exhausted. It’s then that I am obliged to lie down and take a nap.

But sometimes I go to bed at 11 pm or 11.30pm. It’s not all the time because I usually sleep 8 hours a day and all the days are similar to this one I mention.

With the community rules nowadays I have no alternative to change my activities. Since I am a person of an older age and with sequels of an already healed disease, I am considered a high risk patient for acquiring this scourge that is killing many.

I take care not to go out, but from time to time I have to. Keeping myself alert with my face mask, my gel and my vigilance of who stands next to me. Besides, when I get home, the care to avoid any spread is very necessary.

When I started this post I told you it was my average day and so it ended up being. I love what I do and how I do it. I love my job with patients, I love planting, transplanting, harvesting my beautiful plants... I’m passionate about writing on platforms, but the most spoiled one is read.cash, because apart from the income it gives, it provides a unique and unparalleled experience, I learn about cryptocurrencies, I converse with many people, I learn about different personalities and I get to know different cultures.

Previously knowing that there were other countries with similar characteristics to my country in terms of vegetation seemed impossible to me, but in the time I have been writing about my plants I have realized that the Philippines is a country with many species identical to those here. In the posts of some users I could notice that they also have many plants similar to mine.

Reading the postings of some other writers from the Philippines I can realize that they have a lot of economic problems in their country as well, the rains, the floods, the bad streets, the neglect of the government authorities and other eventualities… I can see that their situation is similar to what is happening in the areas near my city.

This is how I realize that writing not only makes me wake up to an unknown world inside me but also opens my eyes to other spaces, to meet other people in other countries with my same illusions, capacities, thoughts and fears.

To discover new latitudes, cultures that I was totally unaware of until I entered these spaces.

Today I realize that I am starting a new awakening, a new life that keeps me attentive to all the changes.

Thanks to all my fellow users who share day by day the comments of my publications and thanks to my sponsors for always being there with me.
