During self-isolation I managed to realize a lot. First, for me it was that I had completely 'neglected' myself. I stopped developing both spiritually and taking care of my appearance. Somehow, almost unnoticed, I plunged into everyday life, problems, and the fast pace of life. Although before I had always been an advocate of the position 'me first, then my husband and children.' Second, it's that I stopped living in the here and now. Enjoying every new victory of my daughter. Understanding that 'today' will never come again and that before you know it your child will leave the parental home. The realization of this pierced me so strongly — here in this photo she lies so tiny, and here she already makes me take a walk with her and her little dog. She might look at me and say, "Mom, this is my life, don't interfere" ? And third, I stopped supporting my husband. He spoiled me with his constant understanding of my tiredness, and I began to take it for granted and believe that my 'household work' was much harder. Although everyone has their own role, and it's not easy for anyone. You can't allow yourself to become selfish. You need to be able to see things not only through your own lens. All in all, for me this was a huuuge pause. I finally developed healthy eating habits, and read the book by Erich Maria Remarque 'Life on Loan' — highly recommend it. I changed the attitudes in my head; now I try to imprint every little smile of my baby in my memory. I began to understand my husband and his burden of responsibility, to support and motivate him toward new achievements. As strange as it may sound, I am grateful to the quarantine for the reset. And I advise you to first find the positives in everything, become the best version of yourself, love and be loved ❤️
