New Year

This year 2020 we have been through lots of troubles and turbulences starting from financial and job loss during this year to loss of trees. We also lost millions of people not only in India but also all around the globe including the loss of our near and dear ones during the pandemic. This year took a toll from us and given us less but on the other side if you see the positive effect of 2020, we could focus on the things like a spending time with family, unleashing the new potential within us whether it be art, music or any other thing. In this new year many resolutions will be built but the main thing is that we should pray not only for the good ones of our family, but also for people all around the globe. There has also been lack of outdoor activities for common people. We have also lost famous celebrities including Irfan Khan, Sushant Singh Rajput, Rishi Kapoor, Soumitra Chatterjee and many others but this year has taught us that in this planet we are just tourists, like any other creature on this earth, so no question of thinking oneself to be Kings and Queens. But this has also brought all of us together, that whether we be Hindu or Muslim, or any other religion corona will affect the entire humanity not only any particular sect. When we were torturing earth then, we continued and now when it is nature's turn then we are in deep trouble. Some places had built relationships while some had broken, some had a fine day with family while some had to struggle for food. In many places including some parties and also people like from Madhavas rock band and also temples including south as well as Iskon has also helped people feed during this pandemic counting in people from small cities, towns and villages. But still this new year brings a lot of peace with new light and hope. Many resolutions will come and go, some will be fulfilled while some will be not. But more than resolutions it is important if we could free ourselves from the cage of negativity and spread our wings of positivity.
