Corona!

Corona is back in the household!! It was last April that we got Corona, immediately after our Kashmir trip. I guess it was the flights and crowd and endless photo sessions that caused it. This time we are not even sure what caused it. But my husband is down with corona. No fever or sore throat, this time it is just head ache, body ache and lots and lots of tiredness for him. So far I am spared. Mostly tomorrow or day after I will be down too. Before that I just wanted to jot down this. We are trying quite hard to isolate our son, because he is the only non vaccinated person. 

This pandemic, it's a very funny thing. It has been two years that world is living under the threat of this virus. Where are we heading to? Will there be no corona free world? Masks will be part of our lifestyle forever? I couldn't help wondering. But looks like Corona will stay for a much longer period than we all anticipated. It might be a good thing too. It did slow down the world. It made people look within and realise what's important for them. It helped families come closer. But it did take lives. It did scar some people forever. 

I hope this third wave stays milder and won't burden people like last time. So far it has not created much casualties. May be we will walk out of it this time. And corona will be gone for good. That's what I read somewhere and that's what I want to believe. Will update this post once I am down and recovered for the second time😊

Update:
As expected I was down with Corona. Starting with a day of aches and sore throat, one day of fever and shivering, the next day of tiredness and anticipation of all symptoms to come back. That is so far the corona story.  Now as I am writing this, I am left with a severe cold and a fear that corona has damaged more than visible stuff (this fear comes from my mom's info on heart, blood etc etc after corona), Right now I am not in a mood to entertain all that. If I die today I will die peacefully. I have not accomplished great things, but the tiny things that I did accomplish are enough to make me happy. I am an "easy to be happy" person I guess.

This time also Corona left behind (not sure it has already 'left', hope so) a good thing. I did some reflection on my life and made some adjustments. Whether they will stick is something I have to monitor in the coming days. If they stick, then it's worthy for another post. Today as I write this, I can see the moon. It is an almost full moon, but not quite.  Like me, almost there but not quite. And not yet. But I will :). So much for Corona blues...
