The unprecedentedt times that is being faced by us currently is shaking our roots to the core. There is fear, stress and anxiety building in all. Be it children, adults or even the seniors of our community or society. How do we deal with this and try not to snap or hurt ourselves through these tough times?
Is it easy?
No, it’s not easy for anyone, each one has their fair share of issues and troubles. There is not one person who is happy or comfortable with the current situation.
What can we do to help ourselves?
Own up to this issue, each and everyone has to take their responsibility to avoid letting the spread of this virus. Understand and know it’s not something that can be avoided but it can be controlled and gradually bought into control when we take the responsibility to stay home and create our very own air bubble for the loved ones.
The authorities can do only x amount of things instead of sitting blaming and trying to pass the baton try to be courageous to take things forward without any hiccups or breaks.
Can we be optimistic?
Why not? Each and everyone has their right to his/ her thoughts and perceptions of life. So look at it from an angle of how do you wish to deal with the current situation? Do you wish to cringe and nag being fearful of everything? Or Do you wish to take control of your life and see what needs to be done?
