Lockdown Life Lessons

This covid19 epidemic has taken the form of a pandemic and has affected nearly 13 lakhs people in India till now. In Delhi,1 in every 4 persons is affected. In Maharashtra also the situation is very bad. Other states are also recording new cases.

All this has resulted in lockdown of the entire nation. First, there was lockdown1, then 2 and 3.And now 4.

During this lockdown phase, my total perspective on life has changed. I have started knowing life from the ground level. The importance of cleanliness is now more legible than ever before. The pressure situations, be it in the work front or at home or outside in the city by-lanes where the police can be seen manning the streets has helped in rediscovering myself.

I have started my writing journey in this lockdown phase and as you are reading this short essay of mine, may I intend to let you know that this is only the second essay I have written apart from essay competitions in school, colleges, and literary magazines. I have also got certification in some of them. But during this lockdown period, I am seriously considering to begin my literary journey and to kick start my career as a writer.

Thank you very much story mirror for giving me this opportunity.
