THE CORONA TIME LESSONS

(serious vs. funny)

THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSONS I HAVE LEARNT FROM THE CORONA TIME

LIFE IS FRAGILE AND EVERY DAY IS IMPORTANT

(Also, the line between life and death is very thin.)

BEING LOCKED DOWN IS NOT THE WORST THING THAT CAN HAPPEN TO US.

(Time changes perspective. What once appeared as bad thing, turned out to later be a life-saver.)

THE PRIMARY HUMAN REACTION TO CHANGE & CRISES IS FEAR.

(And it’s very hard to live with.)

UNLIKE PEOPLE, VIRUSES DON’T DISCRIMINATE MUCH.

(All races, ages, and genders are welcome.)

SOME TINY LIFEFORMS ARE STRONGER THAN ALL THE GOVERNMENTS IN THE WORLD.

(Except maybe Vietnam.)

IN HARD TIMES, SOME PEOPLE BECOME BETTER HUMAN BEINGS, WHILE OTHERS SHOW THEIR WORST.

(Guess where judging goes?)

TIME IS ONLY A WORD.

(Weekdays are the new weekends.)

NATURE IS ONLY THE VIEW FROM MY APARTMENT WINDOW.

(And that view looks so damn good!)

NETFLIX IS THE BEST TRANQUILIZER.

(Except the documentary “Pandemics”.)

FROM SOME REASON, THERE’S NEVER ENOUGH TOILET PAPER.

(The value of the drinking water is overestimated.)

ALL THAT COUPON SHOPPING AND STOCK PILING FINALLY PAYS OFF.

(It’s a win-win. Fills the stomach and soothes the fear.)

LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN.

(And it shouldn’t. It’s time to get insights and make some important decisions.)

IT LOOKS LIKE THAT THIS IS CORONA TIME, BUT IT’S ACTUALLY RESET TIME.

(Personal reset. Government reset. Nature reset. Collective human reset.)

MONEY DOESN’T DECIDE WHO LIVES AND WHO DIES.

(Even the government doesn’t. Unknown people do. Although money can buy ventilators…)

THERE’S SO MUCH ABOUT LIFE WE DON’T KNOW.

(It’s time to admit it. And live with it. Replace fear with faith, prayer, and practice…)

THE ONLY THING IN OUR POWER IS TO MAKE THE MOST OF WHAT’S THERE.

(There’s nothing bad in making origami out of toilet paper.)
