When Corona Ends - Reconnect!

simplifylife (63)in GEMS • 4 years ago

What am I going to do when corona ends? Such a simple question, yet the answer to this is so uncertain. Because much of what we plan to do after corona ends is going to 100% depend on HOW the corona ends! We don't know where and how who's gonna get hit....financially, or more sadly, otherwise.

Boy! Such a gloomy start to such a bright initiative.

But we all have our plans. We don't know if we're gonna wake up the next morning and yet we have plans laid our for a week in advance, don't we! That's human nature. We love to be optimistic, we see hope at the end of misery. We see light at the end of the tunnel!

What have I missed the most in this lock-down?

I've missed hanging out with my niece! She is 3 years old and my biggest fan! Every time she comes visits us or I go visit her, she doesn't wanna let me out of her sight. I literally have to request her to let me go use the washroom lol! There could be a everyone around her asking her to dance with them, but she won't start unless I leave my room and come out and join her! When she's had enough of everyone pampering her to the limits, she'll come hide in my room for some peace and we'll have long chats! Now just because she is 3 years old, don't even begin to think our chats are nonsense! She is super smart and we'll talk about life and shit!

Oh yeah and ghosts too!

What? They're real.

We do video chats now and she bullies me for no apparent reason, pfft! But it's nothing like being there in person.

So the first instant I'm allowed to travel a bit far I'm gonna go over and hang out with her for the whole day!

I was thinking a vacation maybe, but I'm not sure I'll be able to afford it by the time this ends. But I need to get out, chill in the breeze and watch the sunset by the sea or the river, maybe both on two different days!

No, not this place lol! This is in china and I'm in no mood to fly to china to see sunset by the west lake (Oh how I miss hanging out by myself by the west lake during the cool evenings, makes me sad).

The third thing I'm gonna do is go eat Fuchka. For those who don't know what fuchka is, it's Bangladeshi street food. Here's a pic from google for those who don't know.

There's this tiny place, hidden quite deep inside a local market that makes the best fuchka imo and I frequent that place very often! So I'm definitely gonna go and have a plate of fuchka with my friend, Maybe go for a cup of coffee after that as well, but I don't really miss cafes as i can make my own cappuccinos or lattes at home!

I'm sure there'll be a lot more I'd wanna do after this ends, but for the first 3, these definitely tops my chart.

And while we're stuck at home, let's learn to appreciate the little things in life and let's be grateful for the blessing we've been taking for granted all our lives. I have said this before, and I'll say it again,

There's a lesson to be learned from stories of struggle.

I'm sure no matter what happens, we'll come out of this as stronger, better human beings if we're taking the right lessons from our own stories of struggle! Stay safe everyone!
