What is the job of a blogger? Well at least to build an unreal social media world of perfection. You always wear the newest designer clothes, eat the most fancy dishes and fly all around the world to discover breathtaking locations. That is only one side of the coin. At least we blogger have the same daily struggles like all people. For me it is also very important to talk about non superficial & important topics which influence the life of all people. No fashion trend will heal HIV, no organic food will turn economic crisis into a boom and no beauty product will keep us save from radicalism.
As I woke up yesterday morning I looked on my mobile phone and was extremely shocked about the news I read. The United Kingdom decided to leave the European community. Especially for me it was pretty tough because I always wanted to work in London in the future, so my plans moved further into the distance.
Our lifes will change a lot. It's not that easy anymore to fly to London for a weekend trip, student exchange programs between the UK and European countries will be shut, London can't be the financial capital of Europe anymore and besides there will be customs again.
For me it's very hard to imagine a Europe without the UK. But yesterday showed us all how important it is to stand together and to be united. At least it is a step back in the progress to loose all geographic borders between the countries but we have to accept the will of the British people. After this final decision there is no way back for the UK in the EU.
I really hope that this won't lead to unexpected disasters for Europe or the UK. But this can't be said now.
Like Imagine Dragons sang: "It's gotta get easier and easier somehow, but not today".
