Two successive
lockdowns of 21 and 19 days due to the pandemic helped many of us
discover our talent and potential. Being at home for so many
days in touch with our friends, family members, colleagues and students (those who are in education stream) and searching out old friends from our
school and college life on social media platforms - Facebook, Instagram etc.
Those who are
fitness conscious started doing yoga and other fitness exercises with the help
videos on internet. Some enjoyed
watching T.V for hours on various channels and improved their General Knowledge
on various topics - Geography (spread of Covid- 19 from China), Life Science
(symptoms of Covid-19, fever, difficulty in breathing, Hydroxy Chloroquine
Sulphate), Political Science (how various leaders blaming China and WHO ) etc.
Many of us stuck
to mobiles and laptops and learnt new concept of Work from home and
improved our knowledge on various apps as Google Classroom, Zoom, Hangouts and
many more,kept themselves updated with these futuristic apps and concept.
Most of us also
learnt the importance of freedom after being stuck at home due to lockdown, living with limited resources like no online deliveries by
Zomato, Swiggy etc,in red zones no vegetables, fruits, milk. No junk food,
we learnt life can be lived without all these. Most of us tried
hands in kitchen whether it is simple cup of tea or some recipes from You tube.
The list is
endless and unknowingly we discovered many values such as Unity - we all stood
united to minimize the spread of pandemic, appreciation for ladies at home as
during the lockdown when everyone is at home, their work in the kitchen has
increased many times, help poor in the neighborhood with food, this list can
also be endless.
We all
collaborated in nation's progress by staying at home, trusted our leadership,
developed new vision towards our lives.
