Kristina Puga is a freelance journalist based in Miami, Florida.
I recently told someone that I had no regrets in life. I attributed it to the fact that I always took on opportunities and challenges as they came to me, thanks in large part to my dad’s advice. “Life goes so fast,” he would always tell me. “Never waste time.” I didn’t fully comprehend the significance of those words as a kid, but as an adult, I see them as a gift branded into my mind. Those few words have helped me make choices toward living life to its fullest.
The fact that he was that excited made the decision to go easy for me. Little did we know, however, that the pandemic was about to start. The day we said goodbye at my just-emptied apartment in Queens was the same day that the restaurants shut down in NYC. He had wanted to have a farewell dinner for me with the family, but instead, he wore bright blue latex gloves and barely hugged me out of the fear of the lurking virus.
