Lockdown....
Can you hear anything?
Yes I can... I can hear the birds chirping.
The dogs barking.
The wind blowing.
The leaves moving.
Moving of the empty swings as its windy.
Can you see anything around?
Yes I can... I can see the empty roads.
People sitting in balconies waiting to meet each other.
I can see a clear sky.
I can see the empty playgrounds.
I can see the birds flying with joy in the beautiful blue sky.
Can you smell anything different?
Yes I can.. I can smell the pure air around me.
The fragrance of the flowers.
Everything except the pollution.
They say the earth is healing.. but do we actually like it? Or will we be the same after its all gone.. I hope so.
Today we go out with our own shopping bags... Avoiding plastic because it might infect us... Where were we when we all were infecting the earth? We were lost in our own world... And now we should realise what a mistake we have made..
Its all about reciprocation... The earth will give back what we give it.. what goes around comes back.
So lets all pledge to be the same after the lockdown... And not to go back to being the old us.. but become the new person the earth needs us to be.
This too shall pass.. its rightly said.. but we should change overselves so that we don't have to phase another lockdown ever.
