He woke up early, the air conditioner sounded, he remembered that he had been sounding all night, he was listening to sleep, he got up, he thought he had damaged himself, and he said to himself: another damaged air and this one will not be able to fix it either.
The economic situation is getting worse.
She did not have a job; He had worked most of his life independently.
He had formed a project and construction company, worked with the private company for several years. All that time was wonderful, I work in several states of the country projecting and building, and it had gone very well. These jobs allowed him to save enough to achieve his dream.
I build your house, two floors, 400 m2 of construction. He did it with a modern design where he introduced some colonial elements of the country. She liked that style, she used curves. He designed a cylinder embedded in a cube, in all his projects he always introduced curves.
She finished getting ready, she prepared breakfast and ate, I also prepare the food for the bitch and the kitten she has at home and left.
I walked 200m, from the house to the transport stop, but decided that I would walk the whole journey ... It was not safe to walk a long distance and where there are no houses or shops, it was a stretch of half a kilometer; It was the road corridor, parallel to a park, the park is not very used as a recreational area due to insecurity; It is used more for political purposes.
He continued the journey, walked several blocks, from time to time he asked at the shops that he was passing through some material. I go through a sale of lubricants and ask, remembering that your car is damaged by a bottle of lubricants, both in the box and the engine. The hard situation in the country has prevented it from being repaired.
He walked 7 more blocks and entered a car park. This one was assorted, it had cleaning supplies, children's flours, canned foods, flavors, cheeses, meats, vegetables, fruits, vegetables, sweets and many liquors .... People watched, very few bought; She also watched and walked through the corridors looking at the prices.
It had already been two weeks after the salary increase and prices were still rising. It was something unstoppable. There was no control over the situation. And this same lack of control exasperated the people ... She also became anxious and regretted the whole situation that she was living.
The construction area was on the floor. Since there were no materials to build, there were no rebar, wires, cement, and when they arrived, they were sold under cover and with unimaginable surcharges ... It was no longer normal to build. And if I could not build, I could not do projects either. There were no more projects, no more architectural projects were hired.
Without a fixed job, or insurance, this situation affected her 100% and so it had been 8 years, 8 years, each time getting worse. For between the government and the opposition there has been an endless war for power, affecting the entire population of the country. Of course in this war there are always hairy hands tucked, looking in troubled river to take advantage. The lives of people fall into the background. She knew all that, she understood it. What I did not understand was because if she supported the government so much, because she lived these hardships? ... I asked him and he could not find the answer. But I was tired of this situation. I could not stand it anymore.
I had walked a lot and in all the shops that I enter, everything was the same. Most of these were empty, without products, they had already changed their way of serving the customer.
And she looked and thought silently, she talked to herself, in her silence she asked herself and she answered herself, she questioned herself ... Why would she support this government?
While walking, he talked, looked and walked like a numb, walked without believing that the steps were automatons, the dirty streets, the untidy people, this was not normal.
He did not buy anything, there was nothing to buy, he did not have to buy, but he had taken a tour of the city center, had updated with the prices, this produced disbelief and anger, now he had to wait another week to make another travel and get back updated with the new prices.
She realized that she was close to the mayor's office, she decided to pass, she wanted to see if she could find someone she knew, maybe in a fortuitous moment she would meet someone who could help her. I only saw people badly dressed, badly groomed, asked by someone and received a negative response, also from a badly spoken person, this was the most surreal thing I had ever experienced.
It was time to return, return in the same way, walk home, the sun is strong, look for the shadow generated by some protruding ledges and keep writing this post in your mind.
He had noticed that the bus ticket had also increased dramatically. So the walk back would be fruitful. It would be good to exercise the body. He also needed to do exercises. Take advantage of the circumstance to do so. And once again he seeks to get rid of problems and worries ... and begins his dialogue with God:
LORD GIVE ME FORCES TO CONTINUE FORWARD, DO NOT LEAVE ME. DO NOT LEAVE ME AT THIS MOMENT OF NEED.
