2020: Looking at the Brighter Side
Experiences| Reflections | Staying Upbeat
2020- Looking at the Brighter Side- is an endeavor to highlight -how people overcame trying situations during COVID-19. This year has not only enhanced our survival instincts but has made us realize that life is precious. The year 2020 has been a teacher, although a stringent one.
New Decade-& its Experiences
The new decade’s turn brought with it a phenomenon that jolted the entire world out of its trance. The Coronavirus Pandemic does not need any introduction.
It has been a roller coaster ride for every single human being. This dreaded disease has ravaged one country after the other, with indescribable challenges. However, I firmly believe that bright spots would be visible in demanding situations, especially to those who make an effort to look for them.
A snippet
The virus’s ill effects have impacted specific segments and people. But this has led them to rise to the occasion. The best example being Health workers. For their dedication and courage have been astounding. My book has a separate segment dedicated to these Warriors.
Experiences
We have always learned that it is our experiences and challenges that define us and our being. The past ten months have precisely done that. Innumerable circumstances have kept us on tenterhooks. But, the corona outbreak has made us more robust amongst all the darkness and disappointments. Every problem has resulted in new learnings.
The chapters represent my observations and reflections. In addition, I have presented narratives on various topics that are close to me.
