We Shall Overcome
Every sunset is followed by a sunrise. Here's something that you can look forward to. Read on.
Hope and belief are the most powerful weapons of mankind. Our collective hopes can make the impossible, possible.
And here we are, to give you some hope, that we truly shall overcome one day. Like we have, in the past.
Pandemics come and pay us visits, once in a century. And, while living through these unbelievable times, it's natural to think, what next? What happens after the dust settles?
Here again, we can take a cue from the past.
Humankind has survived all these pandemics. This one too, shall pass.
When the pandemic is over, we can expect to witness a revolution. After courting loss, grief, anxiety and whatnot, we would have found new meaning in life. We will live with a renewed passion to make every moment of our lives count. We will be more willing to take risks to achieve the greater good.
From this fire, will stem a revolution that will change the world. It happened after the Black Death pandemic in 1347. It happened after the Spanish Flu pandemic in 1919.
Here’s what Kunal Shah said on Twitter the other day:
In fact, the pandemic has already revolutionized remote working. And, we truly believe that the revolution is just getting started!
When the pandemic is over, people will raise their voices against inequality. Wealthy and powerful people fleeing the scene to keep safe is a deja vu of what happened during the Spanish Flu of the 1800s. Haven’t we also started witnessing this uprising?
People speaking up for better governance will be good for the future.
Haven’t we all imagined the sense of relief that we will have once this is over? We will be able to hug each other, breath the fresh air without the mask pulled on our face, go to places and mingle with our loved ones. This post pandemic behaviour will also lead to a growing economy. In fact, developed nations where vaccination drives are going in full swing have started opening up, and are already showing this trend:
Hopefully the rest of the world will follow soon?
Hopefully. Yes. We shall overcome. And, the day will come soon enough.
Just hang in there. Stay safe, take care :)
