After yesterday, we realised just how distressed and relieved people were. Contradictory? Yes, quite a lot.

On the one hand, there were a lot of entrepreneurs worried because they needed to make an income in order to pay wages at the end of the month, worried that there would be no sales. Many thought, if it goes on like this, how will my space survive?

But for many, the blackout was a way for people to spend time with their families, go for walks, disconnect from technology and live more in the moment.

Both are right!

But the truth is:

Could we have taken precautions? Could we have been better prepared?

Do we need a blackout to realise that we need to take time out to be with our family?

Does it take a blackout for us to suddenly go shopping and fill up the tank?

Prepare your businesses, prepare your homes while there's still time. We don't know tomorrow, but we are aware of the present, of today.

28 April 2025 was a day of reflection for many. A day not to be forgotten. For employers and employees alike, we are all human.

In short, we want you to reflect on the following:

Today, while we still have strength and life, let's fight so that we can at least try to survive more of these events. Let's stay one step ahead and be prepared. Be it with food, candles, torches, generators, fuel, etc. Live life and enjoy it off your screens. Look at the sea, read books, go for walks, dream, because life is too short to be wasted on futile things.
