Yes, the crisis. <\/h3>\n

Omnipresent. Not a day goes by without at least 95% headlines about Corona, SarS-CoV and CoViD-19.<\/p>\n

Numbers. Data. Alleged facts. Restriction of freedom of movement and quarantine (voluntary or imposed).<\/p>\n

And of course: Social media is full of “who could have done what differently when”, “how much (people \/ misery \/ dead \/ empty shelves)”, “someone’s mother has 4 sons …”, “I nominate 5 people for pictures of to post xyz \u201d,\u201c absolutely blatant: city-rural flow without Google \u201d,\u201c I have to get out of here, otherwise I’ll freak out, it’s like prison here \u201d,\u201c clap against the depression of incarceration \u201d,\u201c It’s all just a distraction, so that strong Islamic warriors brought into the country at night with military machines and disguised as asylum seekers … “(my clear favorite among the craziest conspiracy theories!) and other rubbish. Oops … sorry. Other things. The main thing is “annoying”, “bad” or “worse”. And a high proportion of self-pity and superlatives is mandatory.<\/p>\n

\"\"At least that’s how I perceive it, tendency in the country: irritable mood and possible apocalypse. Hamster purchases are necessary for survival. If there is nothing left to eat, the Germans will (survive) in the future on toilet paper, pasta, soap, hand cream and butter. Bon Appetit! <\/p>\n

But hey, stop it: don’t you think we’re actually doing pretty well? Really good even? There is food, a roof over your head, a bed with a freely selectable degree of firmness and, on request, possibly even with 13 comfort zone slatted frames. Electricity, drinking water, telephone – yes even this “Internet”. Health system and \u201cno war\u201d are a matter of course anyway … so why all this whining? <\/p>\n

Granted, what’s new for all of us: the planning security and predictability for the next few months is gone. We have to rethink, cancel appointments and learn to do without. But even that is not an individual fate, but is probably the same thing for the whole world at the moment. Nobody knows how long our scientists will have to research and how long nursing staff and hospitals will be working beyond their limits. Without complaining. And we? We all just have to slow down a little and think. Learning to keep ourselves busy. Or think through and implement ideas, such as our SOS project<\/a> , see below and many other very good aid projects around the world. Constructive, optimistic, with and for each other – it may be exhausting right now, but it won’t stay that way forever!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was (suddenly): our plan for kitesafe.de 2020 – for the cat.<\/h4>\n

And yes, we are of course also affected by the CoViD crisis – and as we think it is not too close:<\/p>\n
