The virus that
shook the surface of the Earth, Lakhs of people infected and suffering from
Covid-19, thousands dead and still counting, Millions of people all over the
world locked down to their homes. All because of a tiny virus which is the size
of 1/100th of a cell in your body. But don’t underestimate it for its size for
once inside your body; it has the power to kill you.
The most deadly thing of the
coronavirus is the ability to mutate and multiply itself when it’s in contact
with a living being. Though with necessary precautions, all this can be avoided.
But I don’t want to bore you with all the safety measures nor do I want to talk
about the negative effects of Covid-19.
In this time of global crisis, it
would help us all to look at the bright side of things. For instance, being
updated about the pandemic is a good thing, but constantly talking about it on
WhatsApp won’t do any good. (I do that at times, then I realized, it’s not
worth spending my time on it) It will just create more amounts of stress which
certainly we don’t want.

Earlier we always complain, we have
no time for ourselves in this busy world. Now we have all the ME TIME in the
world during this period of self-quarantine. Let’s not waste this precious
moment and use it well to do something productive. Do what you love, sketch,
paint, write, read, etc. I, as a matter of fact, believe in balance and
equilibrium in life. There should be a balance in fun time and hard work in
whatever you do. We always push extremes and forget to enjoy life, which also
becomes a problem at times. So balance in productivity is a good way to go to
not face constant frustrations and work overload.
There is ample time to plan for your
future and think about what you actually want to do and become in life. But now
you will ask what if the world comes to an end? All my planning for nothing!?
Don’t worry, the world will not end because of this pandemic, I can assure you
that. I cannot say with certainty when this disease will be contained, but
Covid-19 will end if we take necessary precautions and fight it together as a
family (Now don’t gather in crowds, 'together' was just a figure of speech. As
our Prime minister said “Is waqt Social Distancing bohot mahatvapurn hai)
If you take a look towards nature,
due to millions locked down over the globe the pollution level has drastically
gone down in all major cities. In Venice, the water is crystal clear because
the canals are empty of tourists. Let’s take this opportunity to start on a
bright and eco-friendly note and protect our mother earth. If we do not take
care and protect our Earth, nature finds ways to protect itself which will have
a devastating effect on humanity.
Lastly, I would like to mention,
there is no need to create unnecessary panic, stay calm and composed, as far as
possible listen to your government instructions and stay at home. We will
defeat this Covid-19, whatever it takes because it’s our only shot left at
SURVIVAL!
