Finding Your Nemo

Well, here I am back again with a new post, after a long time. Most of us have seen the movie Finding Nemo. Oh I had loved it. No no, I am not going to write anything about the movie. Yet I feel I should tell you why I named this. Who is "Your Nemo"? Well, your Nemo is you. Yes, you read it right. We all have a child version of us,
within us. We all do. A few of us nurture, take care of the Nemo in us...a few of us just laugh away the thought of being Nemo again.

Today amidst the deadly pandemic Corona Virus, where the whole world have sealed, locked-down it self. We the inhabitants are finding it so difficult to confine ourselves within the four walled boundary. We don't know what to do. The TV channels, WhatsApp messages, Facebook, Insta, Twitter, etc, are all infected/affected by Corona. This Made in China virus have left us with uncertainties in life. How much can you absorb! No where to go, no one to visit... it is a sort of sabbatical break, the Mother Nature have bestowed upon us.

Where we never had time for anything in life other than our routine, now we have plenty of time for everything in life. Mother Nature's plan to put us behind the bars of our own home has some bigger objectives it seems. We all were in absolute hurry to perform our daily chores earlier. When was the last that you looked at yourself and said, "Hey you! Take it slow buddy. Get some life!" Or  rather, "Hello Nemo! Do what you love". In the rat race, we all just went with all.

Mother Nature have its own way of dealing. So she dealt. She suddenly stopped us. She gave us the time, the cue to find the Nemo in us. A golden opportunity. Its now or never.

Do what you love and then Love what you do. Nurture the child in you. Sing, dance, paint, write, read, make, bake, cook, play....the list is endless. Do what you always wanted to do. That could be anything, I repeat Anything. Trust me, you won't look foolish. Spend your time with your loved ones. Call your friends/loved ones whom you haven't called for ages. Sit in the balcony. Watch the clear sky. It is rare, isn't it. Sip your favourite beverage and watch the sun set if possible. Breathe the fresh air. Talk to your plants. Hey do you know, they understand what you say. If you converse to them nicely, they grow well. Don't you always wanted to do all these?

You always wished you had some time to nourish your dreams, your passion. See, Mother Nature have just granted your wish. Go.....find your Nemo!
