Letter to Corona

-
Dear Corona,
It was December 2019, you were just a new born baby. We baptized you Novel Corona. You just opened your eyes and most of our brethren closed their eyes. You start crawling, we fondly called you an outbreak; you flourished,got nourished and started walking; we called you Epidemic. You laughed in content and started acquainting with everyone for that we were to quarantine our people. You grew in hunger day by day and became a glutton. We couldn't fulfill your hunger. We called you Pandemic finally.

Even now you are roaming around merrily and we, playing hide and seek with you. We hide ourselves, we stay at home, under the pretext of curfew, lockdown, quarantine and so on.

You are ultimate! You just let us wash all our sins using hand sanitizers;you let us know how it feels to be at home with our loved ones during week days; you just showed us the truth that our money and possessions have nothing to do with our life and everyone is equal in front of death!

But in order to teach us this lesson you have costed us quite a heavy price.We hate you Corona! You deprive us of our life, our freedom and our peace of mind. Go away Corona!!!
love
Human

 "You are never too old to try something new." , said someone.  True. Life keeps giving us opportunities to explore new things. It is up to us to make the best or worst out of them.  Last Monday was the first working day at school after two months of Summer break. I was sitting half heartedly in the 23 °C air-conditioned  room amidst the hundreds of teachers. After the customary two and a half hour training session, the Principal revealed,  "The Teachers' day celebrations will be held on Friday. Each section of teachers will be given a state of India (North India in particular) and is expected to represent the state through art forms".  I was excited as it was my first time to be a part of such a PAN Indian celebration.  "And all the teachers should come in the traditional clothes of the state given.", he added to my annoyance.  Aww... that was totally out of blue! Within a couple of minutes, the lot was drawn (to choose states for different secti...

🔎Treasure hunt at Mom's place🤩🔎📚

Visiting mom's place after a while is a sheer privilege. As I had been away for more than half a year, I received nothing short of a royal treatment— Sweets, snacks, drinks and beverages were served in regular intervals,  as if it would be a sin to leave even an inch of my tummy empty. My dad and mom were so much into the task that my ever-elongating tummy went on a strike and put up an invisible "houseful" board. With that mind numbing feed, I couldn't help but battle with drowsiness. To stay awake,  I was combing through my shelf for some new stuffs. There was a book that  caught my attention. It  was kept precariously on top of my neatly arranged files and folders.  When I pulled it out, a bookmark fell down to my feet. It read, "Just one more page" I felt as if the bookmark wanted me to read the book. (more like an infant, seeking its mother's attention.) I took it at hand and tucked it carefully back into the book.  When I ...

Tuesday morning dawned as always with us rushing to the auditorium with notepads / laptops. As I barged in, I saw teachers clustered section wise to discuss how to go about practising for the Teachers' day program. While walking through various clusters, I happened to overhear the "Assam" team discussing rigorously on what to wear.  Back in our section, the discussion was rather heated. Amidst the chaos, I was called. "Maha, we are staging a dance. Come. Join us!", said the event coordinator. Before it could sink in, I was dragged to the rehearsal spot where a dozen more teachers had already been waiting. Being a newbie, I couldn't gather myself to say "NO". So, out of FOMO , I nodded my head, wishing badly to be rejected.  The other teachers in the room were filled with josh and vigour. Unlike me, they were open to dance, sing, perform or to do anything. I seemed to be a complete odd one out.  I had inhibitions. What if they laughed at my dance, ...
