Putting Your Mood Down


While you’re sleeping you had a dream of black butterfly in your terrace and you are standing outside of your home and not sure what the dream has a meaning to you than all a sudden your phone begins to ring and you decide to answer the phone call someone inform you some bad news during the conversation you are half asleep still listening to the person talking.

As you are listening to the conversation and explaining the sad news that has happened to a friend you start to worry and knowing someone so innocent had been contacted by covid-19. In your mind you could have not imagine someone catching it so soon.

After the conversation you become fully awake and you have this mood that you cannot seem to remove away no matter if you have eaten your breakfast and do house chorus you do on a daily routine.

You than realize those black butterfly you saw in your dream was the person who just recently passed away.

When you wake up in the morning affects us really bad when we hear sad news to the people who are close to you and unable to see them during our lockdown.

The sad part is the funeral service is to be held through zoom application through our moment we are experiencing is something new to us.

Even though we don’t get to embrace the people during our sad moment we only see faces during the funeral services via zoom through your computer or phone.

In of our own homes we are crying and hearing stories from each family and friend of their remembrance of that person that mean to us.
