I think the human species is accelerating the pace of its own destruction. We have gone a little out of our minds due to the virus induced compulsory house arrest and restrictions imposed on us. The frenzy is totally unbelievable!
Europe is under lockdown.
International Borders are soon going to shut down, we are told. All the kith
and kin, separated family members are not going to be able to travel to their
families.
Every mindless gathering is
infecting several people, young and old. Yet, weddings with hundreds of guests
are being allowed by hotels. Beaches are full. Why not? Rules are merely on
paper. Who implements them?
The worst thing is the complete
lack of consideration for others around us... the fact that WE, because of our
stupidity and lack of control, are risking the lives of so many, family and
friends.
No one is happy with the
situation but does it help to run amuck? Imagine the loneliness of single
senior citizens who have no recourse to any company and are still living more intelligently!
This inability to live with ourselves is going to spell doom if we don’t watch
out. Maybe, the virus has come in the form of “pralaya” which is the beginning
of the end. We had better reform drastically and quickly or take the
consequences.
