Triing ! Triing ! Triing !
The alarm rang. It was 7.00 a.m. I woke up as per my routine and got ready with my morning jogging suit. Ready to go out for jogging. As I reached to my usual walking track, I got surprised by what I saw! None of the people were wearing their colorful mask and many of them were talking and walking with their walking group. Little ahead, I saw a group of oldies, who were doing their laughing exercise. Laugh on their faces looked nothing less than a shining star. I stopped for a while to relook them. I got startled again when saw those middle aged aunties who were more interested in gossiping rather than walking. I could clearly see their speculative faces. Also saw some passionate runners and fitness freaks who were much conscious about their health.
I kept moving on my track, as I was passing ahead I heard some vehicles honking outside of that walking track. And to my surprise, it was a school bus. Few children were getting inside the bus and their mothers were busy with their routine morning short talks. It all looked very normal like any other usual day. Somewhere my mind was not ready to digest this all.
I was struggling with my thoughts and continued my walk. That imbalancing of my body and mind had affected the speed of my walk. I just had completed single track of that walking path. And again to my amazement I saw a group of people gathering around for the “Morning Healthy Sip” (fresh juices of vegetables and herbs) at one end of that track. After a long time I saw a mob and so it was making me restless little bit.
Just to satisfy my amazement I just stopped walking and moved out of the walk way and started roaming on the road, as it was around 8am, most of the shops were already opened. Many old people were heading to the temple for attending “Morning Aarti”. Many people outside temple were feeding the cows. It was such an ecstatic scene. My heart was full of joy. At some point I just didn’t want to move from that place. It was very lively atmosphere.
I just walked and walked further and soon reached nearby garden. There too I found such a live life with people who were busy with their yoga, morning exercises and meditation. I did not understand what happened suddenly in just one night. And in an instant some irksome sound was making me disturbed and annoyed.
Again, Triing ! Triing ! Tring!
I was feeling so irritated and suddenly a thud of sound! Z..O..O.O..P !
What? I fell from the bed? I didn’t understand what was happening and I completely felt lost. After few seconds I got my sense back and I realized I was actually dreaming. Yeah! Even I was not believing that, what I saw all, were nothing but just a beautiful dream and not a reality. Means that Monster COVID – 19 is still there and our life would not yet become smooth and easy. That thought has made me very anxious. I felt so suffocated.
I know not only me but this may be everyone's wish in such crucial time. We immensely want to get our normal life back. This Corona pandemic has frozen our lives. It has created distance between human not just socially but somewhere by heart and by mind too. Every person sees the other person with doubtful eyes in the fear of corona infection. It has made the hugs and kisses like our monsters. People were afraid of each other. And we deadly want to get this over now. We are dying to see those lively surroundings, school going children, college parking full of youngsters, those busiest malls and theatres and restaurants full of people with their shining smile.
I wish this dream of mine Oops, not just mine but Ours will come true! 😊
