Solutions to curb COVID-19

At this point of time, we need to develop a policy that protects us from the virus and protects the people and their jobs.
In this edition, we will be talking about what we can do as responsible individuals to curb this pandemic.
1. Put money back in the System
You must have got a household help, a driver or a gardener-basically the people who come to your house to work. Don't cut their salaries. Don't keep counting the absent days right now. Allow them a paid leave.
 Whenever you go to market for buying fruits, vegetables or other essentials, don't bargain for that 10-20 rupees if you can afford it. Everyone is suffering right now, especially the people who are getting these things to your market since transport is also halted. Consider this 10-20 rupees as your convenience fees.
2. Stop forwarding Rumours 
Central government has not announced any plan to extend the lockdown period till now. Any messages that can create panic, don't forward them. As simple as that. Internet can even be banned if this mass hysteria doesn't stop. At least on that account, stop spreading these lies.
Instead, keep forwarding positive and motivational messages. Keep politics aside and help breaking the chain.
3. Support your Family
The world economy is going to suffer a lot due to this pandemic. Let's put our differences aside and act like a big family and protect the "Vulnerable people".
A lot of people have no savings.
A lot of people are going to lose their jobs.
A lot of people are hungry.
 Can we help them getting at least one meal?
Let's do a simple calculation here:
Say this blog reaches to 1000 people and every person who reads this donates Rs 200.
That's it! We can generate 2 lakh rupees just like that!
That's the power of crowdfunding!
That's your power!
 Consider donating whatever amount you can and tag an influencer so that this message reaches the masses.
Let's make this idea viral. Let's do our bit!

Thanks for reading through this blog. Share this if you think it's worth.
Stay safe. Stay home.

A letter to Jersey No. 7 | The Captain Cool!

Dear Maahi, A very Happy Birthday! Hope you are doing fine. 'Dhoni finishes off in style, a magnificent strike into the crowd. India lifts the World Cup after 28 years. The party starts in the dressing room and it's an indian captain who's been absolutely magnificent in the night of the final'. I can feel this entire comment, it's  not a comment any more. This is a letter from a not so typical cricket lover to a living legend. I want to let you know three of the many things I have learnt from you. 1. There is always more time than you think.  I personally believe statistics tell it all. You have been not out 50 times in ODI, out of these 50 ocassions-India won 47 matches. You have always lived this lesson. 2. Don't think of what'll happen in next 20/30 years. Plan about what are we going to do tomorrow or, a day after. You have always exhibited the subtle art of doing more and expecting less. I believe this  is a solution to multiple issues of our...

Solitude and Loneliness

Don't you think the root cause of most of our problems is the underlying loneliness that most of us experience in our daily lives today. Let's analyse what is the reason behind and derive some practical solution to this. Basically there are two situations i.e, loneliness and Solitude. In loneliness, you are alone and worried about having no one by your side while solitude is experiencing a whole new world when you are alone. You experience happiness when you are alone. You don't need a second person to be happy. The root cause of our emptiness is that our foundation for living is based on lies. We are stuck in the loop of lie spread by ourselves only and continue exhibiting dual personality. Actually we try to complete our emptiness through other things, actions and relationships (people)- don't we? As a consequence, we become more dependable on those things, actions or people. This dependency could be at physical, psychological, financial or even at mental level....
