“It Might be stormy now, but rain doesn’t Last Forever”

Every little Thing and Every person are somehow impacted by COVID-19 in some way or another, it stopped the way in which the world has been going so long. It wholly affected our lives, Around off in the mid of march all schools, business offices closed with all the entertainment facilities. We are all sitting at home for the last 8- 9 months. The things which we take for granted become valuable now. These much more valuable life lessons it has been taught to people. Many of them are listed below:- 

Simple Living: It taught us to live a simple life and not to spend so much money on things which we don’t need. Love your life in the simplest way.

Life Is So Uncertain: If life is certain and can be predicted then there is no charm in life to take initiatives to develop over self. People make plans for the future, but if he suddenly met with death, Nobody knows what’s in the next minute is going to happen

“The Flower that bloomed yesterday, faded today.

The green grass on which you slept yesterday, faded today

The person you saw smiling yesterday, is no more today”

One should accept this uncertainty and enjoy every moment in our lives and it is the only uncertainty in life that makes us stronger every day by facing challenges in day to day life.

Spend time with family: Before COVID-19 everybody is busy with their own work and that what they make their lifestyle but now it helps one to stay and spend time with family. Even on our special day we went outdoors before this time and celebrate with friends. But now we celebrate our special day, our birthdays at home with our family members.

Learning new things and sharing: By sitting at home we have plenty of time to learn each and every day new things. We all are having Smartphone with internet connectivity. There is so much material on the internet and one can easily learn by surfing freely and gaining knowledge. Learning never exhausts the mind. Additionally, it builds self-esteem. We should be thankful that there are a lot of opportunities in our today’s life that one can gain knowledge online. With learning, we should make a daily habit of reading books which are full of knowledge. As for the past few months since the news, we get to know about the book titled ‘Ends of days’. The author of this book Sylvia Browne foretold the worldwide coronavirus outbreak in her book 40 years before. The images of the book had been widely circulated in social media also after this pandemic. So from where we are getting knowledge that is by reading only. Another thing is starting to share your knowledge by making knowledgeable videos or by writing blogs. Let you explore your own knowledge,

Importance of Multiple Stream of income:-No doubt, many people have lost their jobs. It taught us that one should not be dependent so much on one thing and during this time the unemployment rate has increased. We should learn to create multiple sources of income. 

Technology: COVID taught people what technology really is! People started using the internet in different ways. The one who never used a computer is now teaching their students with the help of a computer. Some app likes to zoom, which many of us don’t know before, but now regularly attending classes on it. The virtual platform takes place in every aspect.  Think it off once that if there is no such technology, what would be our life during this pandemic time. How much it affects our lives. It prepared us for the next pandemic, which will be viewed not as a matter of ‘if it happens’ but ‘when it happens’. That we are prepared in advance to deal in an individual and collective manner.

“Technology is not about good or bad but it prevents the bad from getting worse”

And we still have the same hope of happiness and opportunities, but just being encouraged to look in different places to find inside.
