So much in the news, much more in our whatsapp
messages, pictures and videos. Many were inspirational, but more were half
witted with mindless creations. OK, I am being a bit too harsh here maybe, but
agree with me you must, that some messages come through as if the writer was
quite ignorant of the enormity of the pandemic. You can say that we need to see
a lighter side of this natural catastrophe, but there is NO lighter side here.
So did Covid-19 change anything? I feel, "NOT really.” “People are kinder, people are
helping their neighbours more, people have become more appreciative.” Those who
are kinder have always been kind, those who are helping their neighbours and communities have always done so and those who
are more appreciative have always appreciated life. It did not take a lockdown to start these new
virtues.
Yes, some folks have started better habits and
life styles. But will these practices continue? Or will these new found patterns, perish together with Covid-19 when this is all over?
The one noticeable difference that Covid-19 has
contributed is, it has temporarily healed the Earth.
