The World after Coronavirus- It’s a New Beginning

We all know how this worldwide pandemic changed lives for many. For some, it’s been a roller coaster ride, for others, not so much. But we can safely say that it has changed everyone’s life- from a toddler to the elderly people, it has brought many life-altering changes

 

The Negative aspects

 

While many have the money for food, shelter, medicines, equipment, the internet, the basics to live a comfortable life, most of the population doesn’t have it. They are struggling for information, cannot afford certain basic things, have lost their jobs, and are ignored by the filthy rich. It may not sound good, but this is reality. For many, this is a very hard time mentally too. People staying under one roof have lost happinessa stable futureeven Love

 

There are rising cases of alcohol abuse, domestic violence, divorces, depression, and anxiety. There is frustration, miscommunication amongst the household members, increased household chores with no help around leading to more fights. Women have been suffering more. 

Many don’t understand the severity of this pandemic, leading to more rise in cases. 

There is a disco-ordination of management amongst the front-liners pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, and other people connected to the pandemic. 


The Positive aspect

 

The good thing even in this chaotic time is many have had time for self-reflection. It is like a new beginning for so many in terms of quality time spent with family, in terms of health, hobbies, etc. There is a sense of common good taking place. Everyone is coming together in solidarity. Those who have power and money are trying to do the best to contribute to society for a better world. 

People are being grateful for this gift of life and believing in the power of nowThere is a will to change for a better future. 

It has changed the way of academics, works, daily outings, and daily living. And although it may not be that great to have social distance from your loved ones, there is a sense of responsibility prevailing. 

 

In conclusion

 

Scientists and experts are trying to invent a vaccine. Meanwhile, people are tending to self-help, learning more about how to take precautions from authentic sources. There is emotional intelligence, spirituality, among others to explore in this time of crisis. It is a new beginning for all- whether for better or for worse.

Where is the Love?

There is a song called “Where’s the Love” by Black Eyed Peas. It has profound lyrics about the deprived state of the world. The words concentrated on death, children, asking questions about the abysmal world, killings, and terrorism, discrimination, justice, and corruption. At one point, the lyrics even tell you to take control of the mind in the world of change and insanity all around. It talks about the real side of the world- the media, racism, money, etc. Why are we talking about the song? It’s because the lyrics still apply for today.

Can being “Positive” feel Forced?

We are in a world where there is a lot of negativity. Staying positive is the new trend. As much as it sounds good, sometimes it may feel forced. The very pressure of staying positive becomes a bit much when it isn’t like that in their real world. There is this one  gift of life   where one should feel just as they do, instead of what others want them to.  What is forced or toxic positivity?   Forced positivity is the thought that people dealing with a disease need to continually portray themselves in an optimistic mood or light, and that thinking “on the bright side” will help with the hurt. This is awfully common on social media where people are anticipated to only show the good side of their lives.   The term 'toxic positivity' refers to the idea that focusing on the alleged positive emotions and reject anything that may activate negative emotions is the right way to live a life.    The pressured feeling   This kind of feeli...
