As the darkest days in the recent history of the world rummage through our lives, everything we thought we know, has come to a standstill.
Our understanding of the situation – the reality of life, the swiftness of death, the uncertainty of the current and the future and importance of caring well for self and family has kind of wrecked havoc in our otherwise assumed “normal” lives.
While we watch the human world struggle, lose and recuperate, the rest of nature seems to go on with it’s business in a much better way. This is the clarity for all those who believed till today that they can do whatever they want, to understand that they are, but a mere part in the show and not the show itself. Ego break is imminent in such situations, which is important to restore the balance.
But, what also is improving is the time on hand. The forever busy, are seeing more of their home and family for which they actually work. They are getting the time they always wanted for themselves. They are more calmer, battling less of the daily world. They have reasons to pursue their hobbies, interests and nurture their relationships. More veils are being pulled down to bring out the true selves.
This is a great path to be on. With ego broken forcibly by nature, with an insight into the nitty-gritty of home, family and self, we finally can embark on our journey to Find what we Lost all this time...
Hopefully, on the other side of this challenging phase, a more refined and humble human emerges, who will embrace his true self and walk hand in hand with the nature and the world around.
