Sleepless Nights

This year is Solely termed as "Aapdaaon Ka Saal"...
I have been handling this very time very positively, as that's what I wanted all my life, i.e, No Social Life , staying alone, with God damn no routine, away from people. 
These 3 months  (March-18 june) were absolutely brilliant in terms of my life and learning. Be it cooking, or be it sharpening my tech skills, or be it learning about the people and policies, I have done it all. 
There were scenarios where we have seen so many drastic scenes. But till then too Corona positive cases were not at peak. 
As time approached we all have witnessed Crashing Infrastructure, Crashing Health, Crashing Laws, and also Crashing People with more than 10000 Cases per day.  This time I had never imagined would be experienced by us. I have only heard of such times like World War , Plague, Spanish Flu, Recession, Great Depression, Crisis etc.
Thousands of people dying each Day, dead bodies getting buffed up, Running out of space to cremate  dead bodies. Initially there were lacking beds but gradually there is lack of space. People staying home are getting more vulnerable to stress which is leading to increase in violence. But seeing what is going around is just shaking me as hell. 
Past a few days were not that good and were shaking.
Reading news and screaming your views and all is good until your known person gets a victim of it. That has happened to me as one of my known realtive was a victim of Covid -19 and as the health infra has already crashed, she couldn't get a much of better treatment.
Her death and watching people's experiences in the country turned out devastating for me. That has just shaken me. This may sound wierd to some people. But I am a social animal and things do effect, specially when you are living your life in quarantine without seeing people around you since last 3months.
Initially I turned off Social Media, buy couldn't stay away from feed. This particular phase of, Lockdown has made me vulnerable and has taken my sleep away. I am feeling sleepless for the last 10 days and end up watching 3 movies a night.
So I take a sigh of relief and drive crazy to  just get back to my place: My Home: Nest. 

Peace
Juneteenth, 2020
