What does electric interruption made me realized

We live in a time were in light can be seen at night by just turning on the off and on button. It’s easy and accessible isn’t it? Within a second you can see what’s in the dark, but what if? There is no electricity at all? No phones, no laptops, no light, no signal and many more? How are you going to deal with it? Will it be a good thing ? Or bad?

Since typhoon ulysses landed here on philippines last Nov 12 2020, the electricity got interrupted from all over the places that is severely damaged including our place which is Tarlac. With this situation I have done much more than i have been doing before the electricity got interrupted. I’ve got a lot of time doing household chores, requirements and quality time with my siblings. I realized that electricity is one of the things that made me lazier because there is electricity i have all the time and access to my gadgets which is very alarming because I’ve been addicted to it lately to the point that I’m not even helping in the chores anymore, It is laso very alarming to my health because I am exposed too much to gadgets i’m afraid my eyesight could be affected so electricity interruption is a big help for me that time.

No electricity means no light, but that doesn’t made us live in the dark for two weeks because we used candles to bring small amount of light in our house. It’s funny that i actually enjoyed the night more with the candle light than light from the bulb. Thinking about how peaceful and simple life is without electricity. No distractions from resting early at night. Imagine? Sleeping early at night at peace so we can fulfill 8 hours and more hours of sleep how beautiful and healthy that is? It’s very satisfactory. But there is also a bad side that it caused us.

Electricity interruption also is a threat to my study because we are online learning we should have access to our phones and internet, in order to study modules and lesson we need to access the internet but how is that possible if the cell sites are down. It’s a good thing that the school gave considerations for students and faculties to recover after the typhoon.
