Oasis in the desert...

Pandemic has struck the world and it has struck very hard. All we hear these days are bad news around us. However, scorching the heat of the desert, there is always an Oasis. If Pandemic is the desert, Oasis is the art(Music, Painting, poetry, Cinema etc.,). Though many of these activities are restricted due to social distancing, desert has almost engulfed the Oasis. Musicians & Artist are trying to create at-least waterholes if not the whole Oasis using technology.   In one such attempt I am sharing or compiling the Poetry(no where near to any poem) published earlier in my blog. Its only capturing of the feeling at that point of time. Enjoy reading...

Life after coronavirus

When everything around the world is standstill due to the pandemic, what else to write about!!!!. Previously an article about " Corona virus and Mental health" was published in my blog page, which received a good response. It is more important  how useful it was, than the response. Even if it had helped a single person in overcoming the disturbance due to lock down, I would consider it as a grand success. The same ideas can be implemented during normal times also.

Everyone of us are aware about the global pandemic which is caused by novel Corona-virus named COVID-19. Though Corona-virus is not a new one, the latest mutation which is believed to originate from Wuhan province of China spreads rapidly causing pneumonia. Even some prominent leaders are addressing it as " China Virus" which china has condemned. Followed by the pandemic declaration by WHO many countries has stepped in and have announced lock-down except few countries like Sweden who believe their citizens are self-disciplined to follow the social distancing and personal hygiene without imposing curfew. The COVID-19 spreads through droplets, since there is no vaccine  the only way to prevent contracting the deadly virus is by maintaining social distancing, washing hands frequently etc.. Enough of it, as all news channels worldwide are broadcasting news, analysis, prevention, myths about corona all through out the day.  Many lost their jobs(special daily wages labors, do

Happiness is a positive state of mind or a emotional feeling which is pleasant. Happiness is around us as well as within us. Rich and poor are in pursuit of happiness, Young and the old are in pursuit of happiness, Intellectuals and the weak are also in pursuit of happiness. Happiness exist for a certain period of time eventually returning back to normal. The pursuit of happiness is continuous. We seek happiness every passing day, every passing minute and every passing second. Laughter brings happiness, helping brings happiness, games brings happiness, art, music dance, jokes etc.. etc.. brings in happiness. The real happiness lies within.  In the modern age there is shortage of laughter as we are struck in our air conditioned cabins for the whole day. At the end of the day we are socially inactive, we meet friends and relatives rarely and live muted. Emotions are suppressed while we try to learn happiness by attending wellness classes. This is a cry of the empty souls in pursuit
