The battle

Covid has been difficult for all of us in many ways. Let's be gentle with each other.

The battle

 

Everyone is battling something

Someone is struggling with Covid

Someone is helping a Covid patient to recover

Someone has lost a near one to the disease

 

Everyone is battling something

Someone is working day and night to meet the office deadlines

Someone is working on weekends and extended office hours for a project

Someone has lost the work-life balance having no time to rest or pursue hobbies

 

Everyone is battling something

Someone has lost a job

Someone is unemployed yet paying all the bills

Someone is totally blank as to what will be his or her future

 

Everyone is battling something

Someone is caught up with the physical or emotional abuser at home

Someone is doing binge eating or is in some form of addiction to kill the internal void

Someone is in deep emotional distress or having panic attacks at home

 

Everyone is battling something or the other.

The best way how you can help is, just be gentle and compassionate towards each other.

 

Author's Note

Life is simple, we unnecessarily complicate it for ourselves and for others. Let us change the way we think and live our lives. If not in Pandemic, then it will be never. It's not that difficult to be gentle with one another.
