My mind goes zoom.....

Its 's been almost a week that I get up in the morning.and wonder what day is it today? 

Everyday of this lockdown feels like a Sunday!!  I have too much time and yet how the day passes is perplexing.

Ofcourse, I don't have that sinking feeling of Monday morning s!!! No more Monday blues!!!

Actually I am losing track of time during the lockdown. I feel lost!

It's like  Saturday is Wednesday Wednesday is Friday Saturday is Monday!!! My mind is boggled. Earlier  on regular days I would wake up early in the morning at 6:00 a.m. Take a shower go to the gym. Back, shower cook and leave for work.And the day has begun.

Now it's like we have no stress, no binding for time. We  can do work and clean at leisure, cook luxuriously write and read at our own will.  We are binge watching  movies on television and becoming even more addicted to social media. 

The only gentle reminders of time are the  the tea time, lunch time and the dinner time and ofcourse the time when we  watch Ramayan andMahabharat. The times are fixed!!! A solace!

It's a human tendency that one  does not want to follow any schedule. 

 It's fine when we are on vacation.its a kind of a phenomena. Its like we are having a jetlag effect. We are sleeping very late, are awake till the wee hours, getting up late, no fixed schedules. It has accelerated our process of forgetting the days!!!

We have drifted. The weekdays have merged into weekends. We have lost the track of time !! Our physical environment 

seems very normal but we have lost almost all physical contact with  the world.It’s a well known fact that time passes very quickly when we are with our friends and very slowly when we are alone. 

There are no more Sundays and Mondays and Wednesdays and Thursdays but   only today ,someday and another day.

So what now!!!

We are all  stuck home!! To keep a track of time we need to take charge of it. We should make a schedule and stick to it

Being addicted to social media would bring depression, binge watching movies would make us lazy and too much of sleeping would make us feel disappointed. 

Let's all keep in touch with the reality and  find thing creative things to do.Lets discover ourselves, let's appreciate all the the God made things that we took for granted till now. Lets realize nothing is permanent. Even these dark times would pass!! Let's hope for the best!! Live in the real world, appreciate our respective families and friends!! Feel blessed!!! We have homes to stay back!!

We  must stay within the Periphery of our houses and pray to God that soon the lockdown would be over and life would become normal once again.

I am sure once this is all over, there would be no more Monday blues!!! And my  mind will not go zoom!!

A Nice Article By Swami Vivekananda...............
I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me. Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool, she filled the palm of her hand withsome water and held it before me, and said this"You see this water carefully contained on my hand?It symbolizes Love."This was how I saw it: As long as you keep your hand caringly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be .However, if you attempt to close your fingers round it and try to posses it, it will spill through the first cracks it finds. This is the greatest mistake that people do when they meet love...they try to posses it, they demand, they expect... and just like the water spilling ofyour hand, love will retrieve from you. For love is meant to be free, you cannot change its nature. If there are people you love, allow them to be free beings. Give and don't expect.Advise, but don't order.Ask, but never demand. It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly practice. It is the secret to true love. To truly practice it, you must sincerely feel no expectations from those who you love, and yet an unconditional caring." Passing thought.. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take; but by the moments that take our breath away..... Life is beautiful!!! Live it !!!
