Wo(a)ndering thoughts!!!

Dirty dishes can wait.. Pile of  cloths can wait.. Vacuuming and steam mopping can wait.. Mortgage payments can wait .. Perfect healthy meal can wait.. Workouts can wait..  Switch to a comedy show in TV.. Replace idle time to  sleep or nap time. Treat yourself with pancakes for breakfast, Instead of screaming to discipline the kids, extend their TV or Ipad time, Dress up everyday as if you are going out, Put on some music instead of sitting with a laptop/working alone,  Nothing matters, Calm down and  Just take a deep breathe, don't think about tomorrow or next week or next month.. Lets just pass today with existence.. Its good time to go back and look at old pictures from your last trip or reunion, Its good time to  call  your long distance friends and family, Even better,make a video call.  Its good time to read that book you kept it for some-other-time, Its good time to treat yourself with a cake ...

I thought Netflix would be my...

2020 started off with travel plans, wedding plans, big birthday plans, investment plans for so many of us.. Everything is put off  when the world realized the seriousness of Corona Virus. When it was within the walls of China, it was just some one else problem, when it happened in Italy and Iran, developed countries just blamed their administration. Right now when the reality kicks in for  developed countries, they are failing big time.

Government is struggling to focus on two equally important issues, one is to address COVID and protect the citizens at the same time making sure the economy doesn't fall.  I don't think this situation can be avoided, but can be controlled. Sitting in our living room we can criticize the decision made by the powers of administration, reality is they need to balance health and economy to sustain. As ...
