Another day, another week, but who really understands time anymore? The number of cases are steadily rising, but so is the frustration and anxiety from being locked up at home for such an extended time – even if it’s for our own good.
But we’ve got to sit tight – many of us even after the national lockdown comes to an end and when certain pockets and locations see a relaxation of the rules. After all, the end of the lockdown will hardly mean the threat of coronavirus has been put to bed once and for all.
As we continue to trudge on, and keep our social distancing vows, our ‘new normal’ continues to warp and morph and change to the demands of an ever changing uncertain world.
So write in to us at [email protected] with your experiences – in no more than 200 words. Mark the subject matter as ‘The New Normal’ and include your age and where you’re from in the email.
Here are some of the accounts that were emailed to LiveWire this past week.

I belong to a ‘hardcore’ Hindu-Punjabi family and my parents are too blinded by political leaders that they believe in every WhatsApp forward or video about Muslims.
Despite being a student of journalism, I’ve failed to present and explain the reality to them in an effort to erase the hatred they’ve grown up with. Arguments and fights over their “Muslims did this, they did that” and my “can you stop making everything about religion” aren’t new to my household, but their “inki wajah se coronavirus spread ho raha hai” is a new addition.
No amount of facts or statistics seem to be of any use or help because their hatred runs deeper than the truth. I hope things change and they understand the actual reality some day – and not just what political parties sold and biased media feed them.

As a student preparing for the engineering entrance examinations, there are many questions in this uncertain time – the dates keep getting shifted and so does our consternation.
After sitting at a study table for over two years to prepare for that one big day, hoping somewhere that it would be postponed for eternity but also desiring to get it done with all at the same time isn’t a feeling anyone wants to experience.
As much as I like the idea of the exams being pushed back, I hate myself for being indolent too. Quarantine isn’t exactly a walk in the park for students like me.

With the onset of COVID-19, those working in MNCs and big corporate houses got the ease of work from home amid the lockdown. On the other hand, the heroes of our time – health workers, the police and other administrative staff and workers – are working tirelessly, risking their lives to keep people safe and provide them with essentials. For their work, they have been getting much warranted appreciation from governments around the world and the public.
Amidst this chaos, we must also acknowledge the work of housewives, for whom the workload has increased many times over. Many among those living away from home have returned, children are not going to school, office goers are at homes and domestic workers are not coming in. Some families have people who work in alternate shifts – one during the day and the other at night.
But the mighty house women of the world have to work both shifts.
We work all seven days of the week, day shifts and night shifts – for almost 16 hours a day. Our role has also been absolutely pivotal in making huge contributions in keeping the country running as unpaid workers. We housewives also deserve at least a little applause and appreciation for what we do.
