"This is inhuman, we can not find where to draw the strength to survive in this nightmare"
-Samanta Quintero, 71 years old who is a survivor of 7 strokes. He lives in the Sector Belloso, Maracaibo. Maria her sister, fan her day and night to cope with the heat.

For almost a year, Zulia state has been one of the most affected by the electric blackouts, the supply can be cut from 4 to 6 hours a day, but last Friday, that is; Today is 8 days old, the high voltage wiring that crosses the bridge over Lake Maracaibo collapses, this implies that people and citizens are on the verge of despair, and that is not for less, in addition to hundreds of losses economic the suffocating heat of the area makes people suffer double the need for electricity supply.

The blackouts in the cities of Venezuela have become day to day, so much so that we practically plan our work around the hours where the electricity supply works, it is amazing how this country has gone to ruin, thousands of workers and businessmen keep their doors closed because they are more lost than the profits of working without electricity, not counting the large amount of food that breaks down in houses and the damage to electrical equipment.

News has explained that many hospitals in crisis because of this situation has discharged many patients since the power plants have collapsed, as in the case of a well-known hotel in the city of Maracaibo, the hotel "Maruma" which had to vacate the customers since one of the electricity generating plants exploded.

The crisis of so many days without light has even made traders auction off products such as meat, dairy products and other products, even in a state of decomposition, this could have great consequences for consumers, I hope wrong; but it is enough because of the crisis that the country is facing, it would not be good for the outbreak of any disease. In addition to that people are choosing to eat canned goods and of the day, this to avoid losing food.

Venezuela is in a deep crisis

The crisis is so profound that explaining it is complicated, we must live it in our own flesh to understand the adaptation that Venezuelans have had to do, it is like living in an era where modernity no longer exists, everything is chaos, all services are collapsing, and this is due to the lack of maintenance, all the money that was once promised to be used by the government to do works, fix infrastructures, etc; it's money that has been practically stolen, because as you see, nothing is good; but on the contrary every day everything is WORSE.

After so many hours without light, the desperation has begun to intensify, and protests are heard over the most affected areas and sectors, the truth is that Venezuela is very bad, is being buried in ashes, the ashes of a false revolution, the ashes of communism that implanted Hugo Chavez, his ideas that little by little took force towards the negative side, towards the wrong side, the failed mission of Nicolas Maduro, current president, is only noticed by sticking his face out the window, or walking through the streets; see the despair in the faces of the passersby, Maracaibo one of the most important cities of Venezuela with a week without power, something unfair, inhumane, and something that seems very unreal.

The alarming thing is that it does not seem to matter to the national government; it seems that it is better to get rid of the citizens, thousands of sick people, children, the elderly; young boys; each and every one suffering in the gloom of a revolution that did not arrive, a revolution that has only left chaos and desolation, the despair of the citizens in a hot city; where the electricity supply is vital to surpass the days, an oil city involved in the communist decision of Hugo Chavez and his entourages, leaving behind all traces of humanity towards a people that screams desperately for help.

They keep us in the dark and busy thinking about things that should be essential for the day to day life of a civilized and modern society, this is the communist recipe, keep the people with their heads down; waiting for crumbs, crying and thinking about how the hours pass and are wasted in an unproductive day, in seeing how people die every day because of insecurity, scarcity, medicine; asking heaven to help someone or give us a firm signal to act and be a bunch of people protesting in the same direction and with the same north, erase from the map everything that resembles what destroyed this country.

Will Venezuela awaken from the darkness that now overwhelms him, or will he submerge himself in more misery ?, I hope it is the first option, a town where he was born who liberated a large part of Latin America, is as if hypnotized by bad practices and communist hexes, where the ignorance is latent and brainwashing has done its thing in several areas of the population that cover misery with happiness, what will be the deepest point of this serious crisis ?; an oil country that only opened funds to extract liquid and black gold, nowadays it will have to touch more in the bottom of an oil extraction to meet the awakening ?, the need for struggle is; but the fatigue is remarkable, the people do not want to fight or are grabbing force? Daily news makes me and thousands of Venezuelans shocked; to which we bet because this country is reborn from the ashes, we hope that after so much darkness there will be light at the end of the tunnel.
