Past May, with augmenting rains, we welcomed June. Although India started unlock 1.0, my Mumbai ( red zone; and how it can’t be, densely populated it is) continued lockdown. But to my despair, June wasn’t welcoming us the way, we expected!
With unlock 1.0 in the process, the first few days of this month wasn’t the way it should have been.
India witnessed earthquakes, cyclones ( in my own Mumbai ), order issues and of course with increasing number of Covid19 cases it wasn’t definitely, a good time. Few prominent personalities succumbed to their illness( B- town actors Rishi Kapoor and Irfan khan).
Cyclone Nisarg had surpassed my city, by GOD’s grace there wasn’t much damage to lives. But two days later, there was heavy rains with thunder at morning which made several trees fall, blocking the roads in the suburban parts. I literally had to jump through theses fallen trees, to reach to work. Is Mother Nature literally angry on us??
Situation wasn’t getting easy , more were getting infected. And it seems there isn’t any solution to any of these worldly problems.
How many days can people sit at home, eat through their savings? Yes, people were getting out of home for livelihood. Although adequate precautions were taken , things weren’t easy for anyone.
Our hospital conducted few blood camps with full precautions, and I attended them as medical officer( with full PPE). These camps were different than the usual ones; I mean with Covid 19 stress, they were conducted in grounds with just roof( to us save from rains ), social distancing norms were followed, additional history taking, although volunteers turned up, it was less than usual. And again, I urge people to donate blood in this blog too.
As the days passed by, the west side window of the blood bank (I mentioned in my first few blogs) witnessed mortuary personnel handing over 2-3 fully covered bodies at a time, wailing relatives couldn’t even see their loved ones face for one last time.
This pandemic is dooming the inner peace; things have changed a lot, nothing like before. Everything is soo sad around you, even if you strive to look at good things, u hardly find happiness in it. I mean I was the kind of person who hated obstetrics, pediatrics during internship days, but today I long to see births, new lives; amidst this death everywhere atmosphere. May be my profession shouldn’t let me blame about seeing dead bodies around me often, but Let me try put it this way, this often has literally become very continuous.
Before this month’s fortnight ended, another B- town personality committed suicide. Tackling adversities is not simple, especially when we have all around us, but still, when we feel alone and helpless.
So I think during this gloomy pandemic times, we should start speaking about the mental health too.
Making us face adversity, life is testing us, teaching us many things and making us stronger as person, to face the bitterness of same life we once lived happily!
Adversities : in your own life and around your life!
They do affect us , molds the pliable personality with in us!
Adversities may give you moments where you can struggle to win with all the will power in your life or lose and succumb to calamities
Adversities make us sympathetic and in fact more than that it makes us more empathetic!
Turn your heads, pay heeds to quest of inner peace!
So, the last 15 days of June!
How were they?
Troublesome again!
Should I begin with China’s attack on Galwan border or
the pandemic infesting like anything or the common man’s miseries??
Well I shall start with The Great 2020 Pandemic.
Cases started surging post relaxations in Lock-down in
my state as well other states and cities. Plasma therapy trials and immune boosters
were all on going things. But the death rate was constant. I could witness
patients being denied beds as the hospitals were full.
Here I could witness the brought dead patients too…. The
reason can be anything…being denied of bed due to absence of covid test, no
beds available…or the fear itself of being infected or say being away
from your loved ones.
The unclaimed bodies, the mortuary witnessed. These bodies
were once people, some may have been a pauper, but some may have been wealthy
men who got lost with no one to identify.
Pre-life and Post-death no one know, what its like…...
With situation around me, I see helplessness, fear in some people, and in some, I just sit back and see how they take advantage of the situation and grow !
The covid essentials (I
mean masks, sanitizers… etc.) is the ongoing business.
Business…Recently
read, well suited Karl Marx quote ‘The last capitalist we hang, shall be the
one who sold us the rope’
The pandemic continues with few cities getting burdened
more than my own…. Over all in India the numbers have surged, the national
capital has exceeded than financial capital in numbers.
Lockdown will be continued in few parts of my country
till 31st July 2020.
Already half of the year has passed away…
Many people have lost their academic year. Many migrants
who left their jobs to return to their homes feel the pain of poverty, although the government is helping them.. Read about suicides amongst the farmers…, the gas leaks…. the list of
miseries of mankind is never ending….
Hoping for a break in this situation, a change in the
ongoing process, I pray for the betterment of society.
Reminding of year 1962 Indo-Chinese war
Now the let me speak about these double standard Chinese,
who have attacked us…
No Indian can withstand this behavior. To retaliate their
act right now the unsaid, ‘Boycott china movement’ has begun amongst the masses.
I think most of the Indians (including me ) have deleted the Chinese applications
before the GOI circulations of banning 59 apps of theirs’s. I just realized how
they have dominated the market now.
These people are encroaching other nation’s land too. What I understood from my education was that borders help us
to be more organised, help the civilisation to be grown. From where do these
people get this quest or say greed to increase their boundaries, from where to
treat fellow being as enemy/ slaves, why do people colonise others, how can people
behave like parasites?
''How to live our lives?"the question should be sought!
Overall, I feel Loss
Loss of lives,
Loss of humanity,
Loss of certainty,
Loss of righteous nature!
Let me end here…
Let’s see how next month turns out to be……
