50 days ago, the world was fast moving. Everybody was busy doing their routines, be it work, study, play, and so on and so forth. All of a sudden that had to stop. All of us were forced into our homes and put in a "lockdown." Everything changed for us in India beginning March 25th 2020. Initially it was to be for 21 days. Then it got extended for 19 more. We thought the magical number '40' would weave its charm around the virus and life would become normal again. But it wasn't to be. We are currently in Lockdown 3.0 having just concluded 50 days of a different kind of life. Just as we were hoping that this real life trilogy would come to a wrap, Lockdown 4 is around the corner. Wait, is this going to be like the Fast and the Furious series of movies?! Let's certainly hope not!
I was considering doing an analysis on these responses to bring common conclusions. But then I realized how awful that would be. Life has certainly been different and it has been the same for me. As you look at these responses, you may find yourself somewhere there, or maybe you won't. You may be in an entirely different place. And that's okay. But remember that we are all somewhere in this spectrum. Some of us are safe and sound. Some of us are lost and hurting. Some of us have adapted and have made productive use of our time. Some of us wish, if given the chance, we could go back and reset the whole thing.

Perhaps, this pattern doesn't have to do only with these past 50 days of trying to hide from a virus!
Perhaps, this pattern is that of life itself.
What can you and I change?
How can you and I make a difference?
This is wonderful!
