Explanation:
Lockdown allowed me to keep in touch with my creative side.
I work as a senior content developer at an IT firm in Pune. In any creative setup, a little bit of hustle-bustle is generally expected, But, that evening of March 17th 2020 was different.
I remember a sudden buzz in the office, which made me curious. An urgent meeting was called upon, and there you go, the official announcement was made about all of us resorting to working from home until the threat of Coronavirus subsides.
The surging cases in the city had begun to create a sense of fear and anxiety, hence we were all relieved to receive the official email conveying the work from the home structure for employees.
When the first few cases of Coronavirus were detected in Pune, none of us expected it to be the hotspot of the virus.
The announcement was certainly well-timed, as just a few days later, the govt of India announced the lockdown on March 22nd.
The first few days went by as normally as it could. In fact, I was happy that I and my husband would now get to spend ample time together.
We are trying to add some fun elements into our lives by binge-watching Netflix and it is surely giving us a large dose of entertainment.
Having said that, we tend to make our household chores fun-filled as well. My husband puts on the loud music and we create a happy environment, even when we are dusting off our abode.
In fact, I thought of utilizing this free time to learn new and interesting recipes. For someone like me who hardly enters into the kitchen, it was an opportunity to impress my Masterchef husband with some delicacies. (He is an exceptional cook, no less than a chef).
What’s more, my experiment of making chocolate ice cream turned out to be great; thereby giving me the confidence in trying my hand at baking as well.
I discovered I should keep experimenting with my culinary skills more so often now.
Besides, the period of this lockdown allowed me to keep in touch with my creative side. Despite being a passionate writer, I didn’t ever have time to contribute to personal blogging.
I started blogging and my creative self is happy now.
Frankly, hectic schedules never permitted me to flip through novels and books, but that is finally changing and I am now getting to read some interesting books, which is enriching my knowledge about several aspects of life.
Needless to add, I am quite aware of the happenings in the world and the sad reality often dawns on me. With so much going on, it is quite natural for negativity and anxiety to seep in, but DJ (My Husband) and I find ways to engage our minds in some fun games and productive ideas so that we stay positive throughout.
I realize this extended lockdown has taken a toll on many, but, from where I see the world needs time to reboot and we should just wait for its grand opening again.
