2020 has been quite a roller-coaster ride. While typing this, i remember, this is the Year i was able to ride my first actual roller-coaster (which i missed last time at Paris due to my unawareness. can anyone believe that π )
This Year started well, with me having around 10 New Year Resolutions and gear up to take up the challenges. However, never knew the whole world would get a devastating challenge named Corona or COVID 19.
No place remained aloof from this. We realized that the whole world is connected and everyone wants to go back Home and specially Hometown.
First six months, i did not go out of house except for groceries (that too once a week). A logical reaction to this deadly virus. However, it took 6 months to understand, that if you do not touch anything and stay away from people. Then at least morning walk in garden and at a place which is sparsely populated with people 10 meters apart. You won't get virus. Still, going out is like a mission where we need to cover ourselves from the invisible army.
The below picture is of Noosa, a place in Australia. It was such a mesmerizing view and trip which i had. Since childhood, always use to see wallpapers with Ocean in Blue and Green color. Finally got an opportunity to even visit the same. In India, Andaman and Nicobar Islands looks similar.
Note: This picture which i clicked during the trip is my current mobile wallpaper and i am loving it (feel free to download this, if you like or ask me for HD photograph)
It is difficult to find such clean places. May be because, we as Humans are not doing justice to mother nature and take things for granted. COVID19 too, sometimes i feel like is a revenge of mother nature and Heal itself. Pollution got decreased, people get their so called me time to introspect themselves. More of family time, where people understand each other in a better way.
Household chores can be done by both men and women. This was always a great lesson which the world witnessed. Although, there were lot of memes and jokes on this all around. But who cares, unless it brings smile on faces.
We do not find people just eating, gaining weight and doing nothing. Rather we found humans to be interesting creature,
- who used to exercise like a pro and even became yoga teachers and health instructors
- a Chef in every alternate home was born
- we do not need someone else to clean our mess. Rather we can stay clean and hygienic ourselves
- virtually connected through video calls was a new norm with lot of new market players to achieve this goal
- online shopping made people tech-savvy and save on transportation and discounts. However, the real winner was Jeff π
