当全球新冠确诊数字达到几十万时，心中惶惶升起问号，这阵势，难道要突破一百万?那会怎样，不敢想象。

当一百万的堤坝被无情地冲倒，疫情水位还在迅速上涨之时，不祥的信号再次闪现，不会吧，不会突破二百万吧?无边的天幕仿佛更阴郁了。

还没有做好心理准备，又一个不忍仰视的刻度被淹没，再往上看，三百万?不，绝无可能，总该陆陆续续进入拐点了……

终于闭嘴，放弃了对数字的估测，不知道还有多少个不可能会变成可能。今日此时，已破三百一十六万。当然，也有局部缓和的明显迹象，曙光在前!

大约是曾干过风控的缘故，总想从风险偏好、风险排序、风险选择的角度去分析疫情中的一些现象，结果反被生存、自由、自觉、责任、个体、集体等等词汇搞得满脑子打架，再加上正在自学心理学，想试着从不同的角度和位置去体会各色人等的感受……经过一番无谓的努力，只落得气势颓丧，空余悲悯。

“个人可以有哪些自由?个人自由的界限是什么?法律是道德的底线，是不是只要不违法就行?”

“道德是约束自己的，怎能强制，要求别人讲道德就是道德绑架。身体是我自己的，戴不戴口罩、出不出门应是我的自由。”

“不复工肯定要死，得新冠大概率能活，为什么不让复工?”

“你有得病的自由，别人有不被你传染得病的自由，你不能妨碍别人的自由。戴口罩，保持社交距离，防止疫情扩散，是每个公民的责任。”

哇啦哇啦辩论般的声音，充斥于耳。

直至读到大学舍友分享的文字。平静、现实，蕴含着力量，帮我把纷乱的思绪理清了一些。复制粘贴分享如下：

We are in the same storm, but not on the same boat.

For some, quarantine is optimal: a moment of reflection, of reconnection. Easy, in flip flops, with whiskey or tea.

For some, this is a desperate crisis. For others it is facing loneliness. For some, a period of peace, rest time, vacation. For others, torture.

Some are concerned about a brand of chocolate or coffee. Others are concerned about rice for the weekend, if the noodles and sardines will last for a few more days.

Some are in their "home office". Others are looking through trash to survive.

Some desperately want to go back to work because they are running out of money.

Some want to kill those who break the quarantine. Others need to break the quarantine to stand in line at the banks, marketplaces, grocery stores. A few, to escape.

Others criticize the government for the lines.

Some have faith in God and expect miracles during these times. Others say the worse is yet to come.

So, friends, we are not in the same boat.

We are going through a time when our perceptions and needs are completely different. And each one will emerge, in his own way, from that storm.

Some with a tan from their pool. Others with scars on their souls.

It is very important to see beyond what is seen at first glance. Not just looking, more than looking, seeing. See beyond the political party, beyond religion, beyond the nose on your face.

Do not underestimate the pain of others if you do not feel it. Do not judge the good life of some individuals, do not condemn the bad life of the other.

Let us not judge the one who lacks, as well as the one who exceeds him.

We are on different ships looking to survive. Let everyone navigate their route with respect, empathy and social solidarity.
