The huge personal challenge
Tell us a story; share your experience. Or describe the item you are submitting. What does the object or story you've uploaded say about the pandemic, and/or why is it important to you?
The pandemic changed our lives completely. I believe that thanks to that we learned to value life more and especially personal and global hygiene. This challenge was enormous, the pandemic changed our perspective on things, this did not put us on a tightrope where no one knows what was going to happen where everything was uncertain. But I think we have overcome a large part although we are not free from anything.
What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.? And where did you find it?
It is my experience with the pandemic and I believe that each person has lived in a different way but with the same adrenaline and anguish.

Use tags (separated by commas) to describe your story or documents. For example: Does it relate to a particular neighborhood? Does it relate to a particular aspect of the pandemic: school, work, family, hospital.
For the family it has been an immense challenge because we have had to join forces so that we all come out of this well. In this regard, I feel that we have become more empathetic, more charitable. In school and work we have also had to adapt to new dispositions and get out of our comfort zone. In each neighborhood it has developed in the way they could, although we are always going to run into irresponsible people.
