Do you think your life will be same as 'before COVID era' in the 'after COVID era'??
.................................
COVID-19, a minute microscopic virus named CORONA has led to the edification of human intellect in various ways positively ,that is , it has helped us to contemplate the situation in a different manner than the normal regime and learn useful traits for finding lifelong happiness out of the continuous struggle.
Everyone of us has underwent the lockdown period but actually that period was a period of burgeoning in various ways.
Focus on Health
When the country and world was standstill, our body, mind & soul were rejuvenating, when the virus was spreading its arms our body had to start compelling us to strengthen our arms to fight against the minuscule virus, When the word 'positive' felt like a curse, our mind rebuked to clear
this air of negativity and brought our focus on our health, food habits
& immunity. The place of junk food is replaced by home cooked meals, that is, a balanced healthy diet. Healthy practices like home workouts, exercises, yoga, meditation,etc. became a habit for most of us.
Love of Family
When the microscopic devil was sundering the world & its citizens, it indirectly brought together the values of the family culture & love. People had no work or had to work from home so they got to know the importance of the support and love of our close ones. Every family member started helping each other for doing household chores. As the entertainment areas like cinema, parks, game zones, sports events were closed so family spent time together unwinding and enjoying by playing indoor games and watching a number of movies online. The bonding of the elderly with the younger generation became stronger.
Nature is Healing
When the large population was sent home, the nature's beauty and cleanliness arrived back again, When the bad news surrounded the air,ironically, good news was that the air became clean and pure. The aair quality index(AQI) improved by a large margin and even the rivers got de-polluted which in turn benefit the aquatic ecosystem largely. The animals could live freely without any intervention by humans.
Living Without Luxury
When all luxuries were snatched away , life taught us to live with the minimum requirements. Resources for entertainment reduced drastically and thus people had to adapt to the life with basic necessities. People started thinking about securing their future by increasing their savings and investing wisely as precaution to future uncertainties.
Respect for Front-line Warriors
When all work become the 'work from home' , we realized the importance of the front-line warriors, not only now but who have been always working hard for us facing thousands of difficulties everyday. The police, army, fire fighters, doctors, nurses, deliverymen, housekeeping helpers,etc earned respect as people understood their contribution to the society.
Due to this crisis , the healthcare sector faced a lot of challenges and had to manage with insufficient machinery , lack of advanced infrastructure & technology. This period was an alert for this sector so that in future they can be equipped with adequate resources for any situation like this in future.
The teaching and learning is being done since centuries but now it has to be done digitally by using online tools and technologies. The students need to be self-disciplined and the teachers have to be tecnically sound to deliver the concepts clearly.
Multidisciplinary Skill Development
When people lost their jobs or faced financial difficulties, life compelled us to learn various skills to upgrade ourselves. The most important teaching from this period is to add on value by learning more than one specific skill to survive and overcome any unfavorable circumstances. We have read or undergone from surrounding people that there are several people whose original job or business is lost, even though they bring back their financial stability by using other skills.
Even the employers prefer employee with multidisciplinary skill. We can understand by several examples. Teachers, whose job is used to be considered as nontechnical job but they have to adapt many technical skills to cope with this time. In particular primary teachers have to learn for conceptual delivery which maintain interest of young children.HR executives have to arrange virtual meet, to conduct online written exam, virtual group discussion for recruitment .Similarly, in marketing field, it becomes digital and hence, need of time to learn advancement in technology.
Now, it is right time for the current and new generation to be multitasker rather than being specific to one.
' The capacity to learn is a GIFT,
the ability to learn is a SKILL,
but the willingness to learn is a CHOICE. '

"Life will not always be sweet, sometimes it will be sour, bitter and even tasteless. But, you have to allow yourself to savour every moment with the accompanying taste."
