Sweet surprises...
Imagine a forest surrounded by dark clouds and fog with the
forest floor covered with moss and debris and lot of chaos all over. All of a
sudden the dark clouds are cleared away revealing the azure sky with fluffy
snow white clouds. The rays of sunlight lighting up the forest revealing the
brilliant colors and amazing flora and fauna with an amazing background of
light and shadows. All the chaos cleared and the forest being very still and
calm bring lot of peace to the mind and soul.
That’s exactly how it feels today. There was a public
curfew called for in the nation to support non- spreading of Corona virus as
well as appreciating the members who are still working outside for the nation
and supporting the public in need. These include the medical staff, reporters,
police, army, retail industry who are still working round the clock to see that
basic needs of the people is not impacted in any way. There was just so much
positive energy that would inspire anybody.
The curfew
was fully supported by the people in Bangalore. Almost all shops closed except
for medical support system. Almost 90% of people stayed back at home the whole
day. At 5 PM, there was a request to come out and ring the bells / make some
noise and appreciate the people still working for us.
Today at 5 PM , it was quite a scene to watch. At the exact
moment all the folks came out of their homes with their gongs, bells etc
clapping with slogans Bharat Mata ki Jai which is quite patriotic.
Irrespective
of class, creed, rich, poor all became one at this moment. I was so surprised
and felt so good to see the passion that we have in our country. Everyone were
united with a common cause.
It was just a moment to be relished and be proud of. There
were of course, some folks who used this for political showoff but we can
ignore thoseJ.
These are the small important things that showed that
people still respect democracy, listen to the leaders and are able to judge for
themselves which is good or bad. This is
just an indicator that there is still lot of hope for us to grow as a nation
with unity and positive energy.
Hope this energy will help reach us to zeniths that the
world can just only imagine.
That’s Incredible India for youJ.
