La vida sigue como un tren de película, no es ni de día ni de noche
People console and offer condolences and move on Silence is speaking volumes.. It's the constant beats of time that drums along the way, loneliness eats us away
I was so much full of life and exuberant wanted to live fully, but all my passionate dreams were inherited by longing and love alone.
It's lockdown era due to Corona virus and schools and offices are closed, working partially online.
It's been a while more than a year now, quarantined in one room as if a cave girl.
Often it feels like you have forgotten something somewhere. Often you have new discoveries, new visions, new points of view for the familiar situations and not so familiar ones as well. As if new thoughts dawn on you lead you to whole new dimensions of belief. As if you had been blinded before and were in a deep sleep until now. And now you are awaken. This awakening is a new era of evolution in everything. As if you have come out from a cave in which you have been living since the start of time. As if the train is now stationed to a new place, a new world outright. You are a traveler a tourist of a sort and have reached some very new destination, one you have never thought even imagined before. This world is simple and easy to be yourself with. You don't need to dress up or even wear bra or makeup for public or for power impact or just impression management. You are now more of your own person, less pretentious, truer and happier. More pleased with yourself and comfortable enough to connect with others via the internet and social media and video conferencing etc. There was a concept once of big fish in a small box. Now everyone is in a box and the pool is vacant! And when you come out it's like a resurrection! Every window is a new opportunity a new discovery, new ideas are rising and blooming and bearing fruits every minute, because we all here. Everyone is in same boat and same groove. Virus is spread in air and water and in between. We are our own messiah.. Our minds are searching for a cure. How to? That's the question in everyone's mind and we are thinking now. We had stopped thinking and a lot of time had passed and we had not been giving much thought to what was important. Now we are giving it importance. Everything which we had once forgotten is now renewed on our surfaces of mind. For example we had forgotten our own deaths. We had been living as if there was no tomorrow but we were not used to anticipate death! Now we are as it is now a fact so obvious that we can no more ignore it! We had forgotten thinking about others and public well being and importance of health and cleanliness and environmental safety. Now we are keen to have a clean atmosphere around the world. Now we are watching our every move. Now we are eager for a better tomorrow and to make the world a better place to live for every one and generations to come! Now we are less threatening to our environment and more prone to think about other's betterment as now we have realized that we are one! We have reached to a new understanding that everyone is connected one way or the other, no matter how far away from our reach. That we are all related to each other and responsible for our actions towards others and towards the whole world. We do not need slogans of environmental protection just to win in elections now. We are really concerned about this and other factors. We are more genuine and feelings are truer. We are fresh like a new born baby. We are taking baby steps towards the betterment of the world. We are more human for now at least. This could be the best lesson one could learn from the episode of social insecurities This is the resurrection of our minds as of we have emerged from a cave where we have long been. We have realized that if we want to be free and not locked down we have to free our minds and thinking. We have to free others from our domination and possessions and obsessions. We can no more keep them as hostages for our unworthy pursuits and power politics! We can no longer crucify others for our pleasure. We should neither bully others nor force them to obey and concede to our point of view and beliefs. We need to be a free thinker and positive mindset and actions. We need power focus on the development of a collective power by the people for the people and to the people. Better law and order for the safety of the people, not giving up to our petty desires.
