Intermission

Corona has put our lives on intermission. People have been locked down in their homes. They have ample time to meditate and think what have they gained and what has been lost. It is time to cherish our success with our family and to rectify our deficiencies. It is time to think where we were right and what went wrong. It is time to go through our time line. It is time to think what could have been done and what not.

So corona has given us the opportunity to research through our past and set goals for future. We can mark our priorities. We can set up the infrastructure of our thoughts to plan for future when we come out of this pandemic. I think there is going to be great change in our thoughts and purpose of life .

Corona has taught us that life is full of unpredictability.  It is not invincible. It is vulnerable as the tiniest of the virus has shaken the world. It has put brakes to all the works of life. The economies and stock markets are crashing. Even the most developed health care systems have been facing difficulties to meet the necessities of the time and handle this pandemic. What to say about poor and struggling countries?

People are becoming jobless. Poverty is increasing. People are having difficulties in meeting the daily necessities of life.

What can we do?

What can we do to face any pandemic in future in a better way?

Individually we need to adopt healthy life style. We need to eat healthy , exercise daily to boost our immune system. We need to keep our houses and surroundings clean. We need to plant more trees and decrease pollution to keep our atmosphere clean. We should have discipline in our lives.

Collectively, all the countries need to work together to find ways to face these pandemics in a more effective way in future. More and more research work needs to be done in medical fields to cope up with these pandemics. Hospitals , doctors and paramedics should be well equipped and well trained.

So what I believe is that we need to make an effort to be better human beings. We should build strong characters. We should develop positive attitudes towards life. We should be honest . We should be kind. We should condemn wrong and promote right. We should look around and help people who need our support. We should respect others . We should be humble. We should create opportunities for others to grow and excel in their lives as well and develop as a strong society. We should thank the Almighty for all His blessing . We should repent for our sins. We should pray to Him for His mercy. He is the most Merciful and He will guide us to go through these difficult time and came out as better individuals and better human beings.
