As I write this, some have already taken a breath for the last time. And someone’s test result came out positive. My sincere condolences and prayers to all of them.
As the world falls apart, let us brace ourselves. The pandemic is doing more than infecting and taking up lives. As the infection and death rate soars up, let us not discount our mental stability. As we practice social distancing, it is serving as a boon to some while a bane to others. As a social animal, it is getting hard to be isolated and quarantined for humans.
Fear and anxiety has already crept in. Panic and emotional distress has already seeped in. Day after day, it is getting difficult to cope up with the turn that the world has been taking. Amidst this all, the universe sends out a silent message; it is the moment to introspect ourselves. The world has slowed down so that we may decipher ourselves.
Every now and then, let us take a break from reading and listening to the news related to pandemic because the continual reports are exhausting and tiring our mind. Let us clear our mind- stop draining our energy with constant news reports. Detoxification is an essential remedy to alleviate our worries and anxieties.
The world is already in so much pain and hatred; let us not add more to it. Let us be that soft shimmer of sunshine, tender showers of rain, cool autumn breeze and mild cascading snow.
Let us look out for one another. Because at this moment, these things are what matters the most.
The dawn will break and this too shall pass.
Till then, much love and regards. Xoxo
Priya Rai
