Dear Readers

The pandemic has been a great teacher to each one of us, one of my precious lessons learnt is, the need to be kinder than we are and more considerate than we have ever been and then Maybe the world would be a better and happier place.

Maybe

Maybe, a STRANGER would not reach out to you

One would not confide in you

Maybe one won’t prefer being the laughing stock

One would fear this “I am all ears!” to be a means to mock

BUT

Maybe… World would be a happier place if we just care

For the ones close, yet hesitant to share

Maybe even with the ones we hardly get along well

Instead of, being savage if it’s on empathy we dwell

Maybe being less judgemental and more considerate would do

Much more than a half-hearted- “I am there for all of you”!

Maybe it’s better to appreciate a bit everyday

Than a myriad of compliments when one is gone too far away

Well…Prevention is always better than Cure

And Helping Hands outdo the Praying Lips for Sure!! For Sure!!
