We are in a phase that will be marked on the history and our generation’s first time ever. This time of our lives there are so much going on physically and mentally and the consoling thing is this is for the whole world and keep in mind that your not alone.

I am going to tell you a simple truth that I have been feeling lately. Here it goes...

So on one Friday of March as I was working from home due to the outbreak of Corona virus, I had a feeling to go home as it was about a month. But when I checked the tickets, the buses were full and also there was an announcement that the next day the State borders will be closed. So I had only one day to go but there is no possible solution to it. I felt really, really bad because when I realized that I am running out of possibilities, the more my heart wanted to go home. But gratefully I have my Aunt’s house which is only 15 minutes from where I am staying. So, getting tired of thinking what to do next, I packed and went to her place, yet my heart was not okay with it. (fun fact : my heart and mind - It doesn’t accept change easily , it takes a lot of time adjusting to it) Then days went by, news came up, the number of deaths were increasing and hopes were fading, prayers were growing…etc

One evening when I was still selfish about wanting to go home, I heard a news that there were so many people from other states who were stuck in the middle of nowhere as they were not able to travel home. And guess what they did for shelter? They made their beds on the branches of the trees on the roadside. Can you imagine that? There were kids, women and hundreds of people. Imagine how struggling and hard would that be?

Here I am with a roof on my top, good food all 3 times, bed to lie, doors for safety and toilets yet complaining about not being able to go home. I felt really bad for being so selfish that night. And that is when I thought I should really write about how mean we could get sometimes.

Looking for our own happiness is human nature but not in the times when there are thousands of people dying, families losing their loved ones and when the country is piling bodies in a single pit.

There are so many little things that’s happening around us that we miss to look out. So I tell you that there is some reason behind where you are in life and the time has not yet come and the time of waiting too shall pass. But in that time of waiting, instead of complaining Look Around and See What You're Missing out. If your alive and reading this post, I think you are blessed and your life has some purpose.

With fingers crossed, I believe this too shall pass.

In the eye of our Lord Jesus, everything has its own purpose. Whatever it may be, and wherever we are, our Lord is there aside us. In every moment of life, thank God for his Grace.

Creater has the purpose very clearly.

God bless you always.
