Invisible Virus is Visible Everywhere ! Watch out !


What does INVISIBLE mean?  Not visible to naked eyes?
Microscopic?  Hidden? Concealed? Undisclosed?  But certainly not undiscovered or uncertain in the case of this virus. The Corona virus is lurking large, distinct and crystal clear.
Corona virus started as a doubt, transformed into fear, took shape as a disease and was unleashed as a death sentence. It is unseen yet fatal.  It is microscopic yet faster than speed.  But what I really want to talk about is, whether the Corona virus is invisible like we think?
No ! It's distinct and clear and can be seen, felt and heard.  It is making a big explosion, a big noise, a big scene and a big impact. It is everywhere.

What is really baffling about this virus is, it's telling a lot.  A lot more than we ever knew. It discovered us, revealed us, exposed us and stripped us.  

Let me now explain your question.  I know what leaped in your mind.  How?  Isn't that your question?  Aha!  That's it !
To begin with, self isolation led to what?  Nothing, other than self discovery.  We had alone time, all the time to ourselves that we could ask for.  We got to know who we actually are.  What we actually want, who we exactly want in our lives, how we were occupied with the irrelevant matters and people, who mattered and who didn't.  A whole package of self discovery.  

We realized what was safe for us, where  the hidden risks were, what threatened our health and peace ✌️, who embraced us and stayed with us, and who embraced us but were never with us.

We had family time, quality time with our loved ones, enough time to understand each other and appreciate each other.
Above all, most importantly, it dawned on us that we control nothing, absolutely nothing.  All our resources, power, fame, degrees were reduced to nothing.  Something prevailed above all this.  The Only One Who is in power and controls everything.  We are as helpless as a newborn baby.  We are reborn everyday.  Every morning we start all over again.  

It took  just a virus to humble us.  Tell us who we are and where we belong !!

It's my life ! My journey !

 



I set out on my ⛵ boat on a journey of my own.  My cravings for adventure and discovery is ceaseless.  An endless expedition to nowhere.  I just wanted to travel, to move forward, to keep moving.

My restless mind set new targets every morn, my restless heart beat with new rhythm every dawn and my restless eyes wandered in new directions every moment.  I traveled endlessly.  All I wanted was to go on.

I wanted to reach for the 🌟 s, jump to the moon and bask in the sun.  I had new dreams, new hopes and vast imagination. Failure leapt at me but could never grasp me.  I rescued myself from its grip and focused only on the horizon of success.  

Success was in my dictionary, my vocabulary and my mind but I kept adding new definition to it.  I defined my own success, carved my own path and designed my own plans.  

I set no boundaries for I wanted a journey that could chase success and go beyond the horizon.  I challenged challenge and met challenges like eyes meet 🌞 rays every morning when you draw the curtain.  

How and where I will end my journey, I know not.  But whenever and wherever my boat lands,  I want to see contentment awaiting me. Peace ✌️ embracing me and honor 👑 crowning me.  That is my journey !  That is my destination.  Just where I want to be!

Negativity ? No more please !

Optimism is what we need to cultivate in our lifestyle.  Positive mindset will prevent us from tarnishing the environment.  Otherwise we will find ourselves living in constant fear and insecurity.  Often, before making any effort, whatsoever, we kill our plans with our own hands and call them off.
Rather than exploring and taking chances with what can be done, we start rejecting and eliminating what cannot be done.  We lose interest because of our own inconsistency and are quick to blame it on anything and anyone but our own incompetence.  

Rome was not built in a day.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Such golden words are extinct now. 

 In today's world of technology, we have ignorantly put our faith in touchscreen, meaning to say, instant action.  That is fantastic but fantasy.  We have to get back to reality and let it happen while we continue to strive towards our goals.  

Every goal is an indefinite journey.  We get to decide how we get there.  We can make it so exciting and easy.  Sometimes, the journey itself can be so rewarding that the goal doesn't matter, because it becomes obvious that we had a very productive adventure all along.  The distance between the plan and the goal is what matters and moulds us.  This is the beauty, the real essence.
