What Would you think covid 19 has done to many of us?
Yes it was indeed unfortunate that so many have lost their lives and near and dear ones.
But on a practical ground when we think of our adaptation during this period, it is something incredible.
Some of us thought that we have enough money so we are safe,
Some of us thought that we are
well-educated so nothing can touch us,
Some of us thought that we are very healthy, strong and hygienic, so nothing will happen,
But somehow it attacked all the above categories, only the lucky ones are those who would have had a great immune system.
Road workers and their children, those who work in the fields, mines or anyone who directly comes into contact with mud-related work would have naturally developed a good immune system and are the less affected ones, it is just one observation.
So many would have realised the value of mother/wife who silently does all the household work despite the fact that they also have their own career only when the mother/wife are in home quarantine.
Some would have realised how much they should be indebted to their office for giving so much of peace in life 😂😂 (work from home impact) as they realise that they are the 'best' couple under the sun.
Men learnt to make coffee, oh sorry should put it in order , so learnt to switch on the stove, learnt to make decoction, rice, sambar, saaru, chapathi, dosa, ahaa what not? (so women are happy)
Initially school kids (though little kids between 3-5 years old richly deserved to be pampered at home) and many students were happy thinking that they don't have to go to school ever again, but those who are good at studies who always wanted to prove that they are the highest scorers were disappointed.
The politicians who were always in treasure hunt were so happy to have elongated the corona waves for ten plus months to prove that in India they are the wildest beings. ( corruption is the origin of politics or vice-versa, that too as a whole system, (not all politicians though) disgusting.
Doctors, nurses and many volunteers worked day and night for the welfare of mankind but the hospitals corruption never stopped.
Business companies, be it employers or employees, artisans, artistes, musicians, teachers, sports people, hotels, temples, from rich to poor everybody suffered financial loss as the whole country/world was under the lockdown for months. No one asked covid for reservation on caste /minority / religion based, neither 'it' asked anyone.
Staying at home some started yoga though it takes a lot more to call a 'yogi', many started trying out new news snacks, dishes, recipes and obviously became Bhogis.
Everybody became court musicians of Facebook. So many child prodigies popped up. Music concerts became so common every morning till evening Live / premiere. So many new covid season 😂music sabhas popped up. Some started to read novels and so on (including me).
Those who always cry about their own problems had to listen to everyone's problem now and were deprived of their chance.
Funny thing is so far we were under the impression that being positive is very good but this corona came and changed the meaning of the very word to somewhat scary, (covid positive)
'Stay home stay safe' quote became quarantine 🙄.
Anyone who walked towards hospital for sneeze, cold or temperature treatment considered covid positive, looked like a wholesale deal.
Having said all these we also realised we are actually capable of facing any situation only thing we need to be thrown into the water.
The take home is face situations as it comes fight it and learn from it and move onnnn.
