The world is going through a surreal time right now.
If someone had said some months back, “things will go for a lockdown,” who would have believed it?
Crazy. Archaic. No way.
In today’s modern world, with so many advances is science, how could a virus stop the world?
But, yet it has. All the technology, all the research, all the advances seem to just collapse against this gigantic wave of corona virus. The virus has come in galloping and storming, conquering and devastating all beyond boundaries, beyond reason.
It has shocked us with its intensity and made us really sit back and wonder: God’s way of saying… we were going too fast?
Today, everyone is saying that COVID-19 has made us pause. Draw in a deep breath. Think, Ruminate. Relax and Freshen.
But, isn’t it ironic? We know, we were going too fast. We needed to pause. We needed to step back. We needed to take a breath.
But did we need the virus to tell us so? When we knew we needed it, why did we not do it ourselves? Did we really need this fearful, threatening virus to tell us?
If we needed the coronavirus to tell us to sit back, to help each other, to be united,
Then we need to look within. Think of our own values. our thought processes.
