From our family and friends to altered daily routines, financial pressures, and social isolation, the pandemic has affected so much of our lives. As much as I would like to think or say that we have managed to get used to the way this pandemic has changed our lives, there are things that remain stuck.
This is where “Perestroika” in whatever way you can have it comes in. As Mikhail Gorbachev also mentioned, “If you are not moving forward, you are moving backwards.” To avoid a stagnant life as they did in the 80’s, distinguish your focus even more so after two years of a pandemic and embrace both old and new ways to further take care of oneself and those around you. The holidays have passed, and we are back to our regular given days albeit still with health risks. The spread of the virus can and may still remain for a number of years and if we do not try to cope after even such a time already in practice, opportunities and inevitable use of time itself will also remain to be enclosed in our mundane living. If I had instructed to not just make a new but a better new normal in my first article, this one is to remind you not to hesitate or undermine the motion of “openness” while remaining indoors.

This is her favorite hobby and that is because writing has become her greatest outlet from all things beautiful and chaotic in her world. She only hopes that when you read her work, you'll feel and think the same as she has felt and thought.
