Lockdown - SCIFI movie

I feel like I am into a SCIFI movie. The fear, the lockdown, the conspiracy and helplessness are all so real! I could see how like any movie, it started with a rosy day in office discussing how people in some remote part of the world are fighting with a dangerous epidemic. Then being concerned about people whom I know and work with. Then slowly the black clouds spreading to India.
And I am immediately put into charge to do something about it. Face masks, sanitizer, home made food, immunity developing home remedies, etc etc to make sure everyone is safe. The speeches, the media, the messages all seem to be running in the background like how in movie it hovers around the characters. I feel so helpless that I am still not able to find some solution to it! And why the plot is still not seeing the deep bottom and why are we not bouncing back to the thrilling recovery from the epidemic??
I just want to get up and take a breath of relief that it was just a dream!! I just want the movie to stop and get back to the normal day to day life! I hope I am right...or atleast like any SCIFI movie, the recovery is now just a click away!!!

Work From Home Mother - Lockdown diaries

'When the going gets tough, the tough gets going!' And right now, each one of us need to be tough. The odds are against, but the silver lining is we (as E///) are making a difference. Helping the world to connect and supporting the critical services with our technology.
While I WFH along with my wonderful team supporting me impeccably.The juggle between work and home is not easy, keeping kids productively occupied while I deal with business needs is pressing. Similar to business, you need to be innovative in your solutions and delegate projects everyday to ensure productivity at home too 🙂 #togetherapart #innovationAtHome #WFHMother

Lockdown Reflections!

Thanks to the lockdown, we have experienced a different life....
Otherwise, how would you know the color SKY BLUE exists in SKY
Otherwise, how would you know the birds can chirp even at noon
Otherwise, how would you realise India also has SPRING and BLOOM season
Otherwise, how would you know you can ever be bored of watching Netflix
Otherwise, how would you cook those fancy dishes at home which you always thought of trying
Otherwise, how would you know screentime is such a BOON for working parents
Otherwise, how would you know WORK FOR HOME is more difficult than WORK FROM HOME
Otherwise, how would you know that you could talk to your entire family on ZOOM Meeting at once
Otherwise, how would you know you can actually wash 80% of the groceries you shop with soap
Otherwise, how would you know how important it is to have a porch/foyer to keep the grocery untouched for 1 day
Otherwise, how would you be grateful for the trivial things like house, food and clothes to wear
Otherwise, how would you know that people have bigger issues than EGO issues
Otherwise, how would you know there is a calm in all the clutter in life
Otherwise, how would you know YOU ARE INSIGNIFICANT and world will not stop in your absence
So before the madness RESTARTS,,, time for some REFLECTIONS...
So what is your OTHERWISE??

Silhouette

Nature tells us everyday; Change is the only constant! We keep mourning over the past ;And worrying about the future.
But forget to live the present.The present is the biggest PRESENT we have,
But like these cherry blossom trees
We keep ourselves focused to the spring. Though the spring might bring the promise of some heavenly blossoms. But today in the autumn, It still gives some spectacular silhouettes. All we need is to change the lenses and view it from a different pair of eyes.
