Shutdown LockDown slow down and cool down

Shutdown Lockdown promotes slowdown and cool down 

Life has brought many to a new revelation. The  lockdown has brought many face to face with a new situation of cool down and slow down

The slow down movement now brings meaning to many jet set operators who fly with laptops and don’t eat while keying in messages, emails and blogs 

Cool down occurs with slowing down your breath , slowing down your swallowing, eating ,biting ,brushing, bathing and soaping.

Everything just slowdown allows you to cool down

I experience that I have time to breathe slow “. That’s key to know the taste of food ,juices and fluids 

I have freedom to wake up later not run for the bus or Ola or the flight .

Thankfully a govt that listens and acts on time is now functioning in a war room situation to save millions of lives.

A committed  govt and a leader who is willing to walk his talk is a gift of the divine 

This commitment is visible in government in UP and also at the centre 

I am told Banks are working. Governance is working and has improved to make life safe for doctors and travel shutdown has added peace 

Corruption will be quickly called out and some fear to practise corruption in these difficult times. 

A govt that works adds value to quality of life . More work is done by the law enforcement agencies. Meanwhile many law enforcement officers find it easy with sticks, bamboos and aluminium rods not guns. This costs them pain of being stoned fisted and injured.

The air has cleared up without pollution. The sea in Mumbai is blue I am told for the first time in ages.

The cleanliness campaign has saved many lives i am sure. 

I see police practising random acts of kindness along with the bamboos.

Aid packages have reached the needy on time in most states. NGOs have also added to the support for the  needy.

Some states though are good in PR work and have caused immeasurable damage to the nation.  I won’t name any here. 

Migration and travel and doing it safely is a big challenge. 

I pray for this nation and to the people to support the govt in place to ensure minimum people suffer and let us pray things clear up by April, as  some astrologers say and some predict October  2020 

Hope happy days return soon
