Virus has changed the world

Something came and whole world will be soon back to New Normal.

The virus has bought the world to stand still. Doors of temples, Mosques, Churches are closed. Some gurudwara’s are open as they serve humanitarian cause. Take a guess then where does god reside?

It’s God’s Reset for us. We are getting a new life. We are being taught compassion now as we did not learn on our own. Its not a reboot, its a reset. We will have a new beginning.

This time nature has decided to work in silence. I know its bad out there but it amazes me how we are so powerless when we thought we are powerful. The most powerful country USA also cannot win the battle. You have to put your head down and submit yourself that’s the only way out. Not sure if everyone gets it but its a loud and clear announcement of be humble, be venerable, be compassionate.

Virus has changed the world for better and it will become better. Police men feeding the poor is not asking for his religion. A Woman who has nothing is clapping for appreciation of health workers. Health workers are putting their own life on line to save lives. A singer in Italy is cheering the people without any returns. People who cannot afford are distributing foods on the streets. Clear sign that what is going to come is going to be a far better world.

On personal front, I have learnt a lot of things:

  1. Time we care for each other: I have got calls and messages from many who were not in touch. I did the same for few of them. Even though unable to do much even asking for whereabouts shows the care.
  2. I am more thankful then ever before and I think everyone should be thankful.
  3. I appreciate everything and everyone now. Its about time we started looking at good things ONLY and appreciate them.
  4. Everyone is different and you cannot impose yourself on anyone. Give everyone space to live.
  5. Be Happy: Honestly, I was feeling down with all -ve news from the media. Somehow picked up myself and I realized being happy is an inside feeling, we mistake it to be outside us. Our happiness always dependent on someone or something outside of us. Nothing would ever be perfect, still be happy.
  6. Be Quiet/Silent: Truth reveals itself.
  7. Time: How to best use your time? There has never been such abundance of time where you can explore yourself to the fullest. There would never come a better time then NOW.
  8. I make very good cutlets but not good at doing vessels :)

We will soon know the NEW Normal. Thanks to the virus.
