Count your blessings!
I've just finished watching a session on ProZ as they held "Freelancer success" summit.
The session was given by Rita Pang, M.A.!
Actually, it was so emotional and heart touching. she was speaking about the struggles she is facing during this hard time.
But, she still can count her blessings and encourage others to do the same!

| Write your trouble in the sand, carve your blessing in the stone. | Apr 14, 2020 |
Good point Marwa. There is an enormous pressure on us now while we struggle to continue our lives. For example, we have curfew on weekends in Turkey these days, and it is really difficult to get used to. There is only so much you can do at home. I think the psychiatrists will have their work cut out for them soon.

For me, I have a curfew for the whole week and I can't get out even from my neighbourhood. I didn't remember the last time I saw the street!
But still, I have to think in a positive way to maintain my psychological balance!

In addition to work, that keeps me busy, I have found in music and literature ways to have my mental balance.
"This is the time to be slow,
Lie low to the wall
Until the bitter weather passes.
