My Joyful Tryst with Quarantine

Dear Journal 

The world seems like an unending rollercoaster ride right now with the pandemic that has jolted the entire world straight into discomfort! Everyone locked into their homes with depression and boredom getting the better of them, lives slipping away at the rate of pollution in the country and productivity going down the drain! All of the world helpless and lodged in an anxious bubble with no exit in sight. Most people would like to see it more as a loss.

 Surprisingly, I won’t. Why? Because this loss turned out to be a gain for me, one that gifted an unbreakable bond between my brother and me, a seed that revealed behaviors and interests that I didn’t even know I possessed. This time helped me realize the worth of even the smallest things and how priceless are loved ones! In a nutshell, this pandemic, when looked at from a distance is a blessing in disguise that got a whole new me out.

MY Reflections ( they say reflective thinking always helps you think and act clearly) 

How I felt throughout: Content

Someone I observed: The lockdown changed many, even my best friend who was with me through thick and thin. Where he would visit me every time I got hurt, during these hard times, he wouldn’t even bother to call me. But looking at the bigger picture, I see how him cutting off was destined because days after I got a new friend, a more trustworthy one!

Hang in there dear reader! Will be back with another reflective piece.
