The Morning After Pandemic
I don't know about you, but I'm starting to regret taking life for granted right about now. Amidst a third lockdown where the whole world has dwindled into ghost towns and bankrupt stores, I too am feeling alone and without purpose. Sadly, I think we're all following the same sort of lines at the moment — and it truly is a heartbreaking sight. Just seeing the landmarks I know and love lose business and crumble under the pressures of rules and cutthroat regulations; it's hard to envision ever seeing them re-open their dusty doors to crowds of luminous smiles ever again.

My year during a pandemic
What a year 2020 was. I started out this year out quite normally with work, study and plans to try for a baby with my partner. In February this year I attended my last major function, which was a friend’s wedding and it was a big event in the city with hundreds of people. Looking back I cannot believe how lightly we took things like functions and going out back then.

What’s your trauma?
I’ve had this tremendous revelation. It deals with the trauma that I’ve been carrying for I don’t even know how long now. And recently, due to my newfound experience concerning a particular self love journey I’ve come to understand the root of a lot of the issues that I have, mainly in regards to my relationships with other people. The self love came first here, after almost 40 years of not having any self love, while on the contrary I had tremendous amounts of love for other people but I hated myself. I came to love myself, to become the biggest cheerleader of myself, and to put into practice daily affirmations. I hate that I never learned any of things until now. But at least I’m here...

Enough
And just to think, a year prior I was battling depression, entering the beginning of a never-ending nightmare. For every high in my life, a low followed suit. I finally started my career, as I was ending a nearly 10 year relationship with the father of my second son. I finally got a place to call my own for me and my sons, as I found out my sister betrayed me in ways unimaginable.

6 Lessons Learnt From The Coronavirus Pandemic
There is no doubt that 2020 has been a tumultuous year, for many reasons. There have been those of us who couldn’t wait for it to be over, and then those of us who were suspicious about the next year coming; who told us all not to hype it up so much (the higher you are, the further you have to fall – they would say), to slip into the new year quietly and DON’T TOUCH ANYTHING! Now safely on the other side of the abomination that was 2020 and three days into 2021, I’d like to reflect upon the good, bad and bittersweet lessons this past year has taught me, and maybe all of us.

A Plea For Peace
In a world that grew as dark as the crevices of hell last year it is time we make it possible to achieve immensely brighter things starting this one out. We have given in to the hate, the sadness, and the negativity that swept us off our aching feet. 2020 showered us with problems we only had nightmares we would face. Yet, a world divided is still a world not yet matured. A world not yet able to feel the compassion of strangers. I don’t know when it became wrong to lift ping the spirits of those around you. Yet, now we live in a world where kindness has been mocked and laughed at. Where patience has been impatiently challenged. Where love is rushed with lascivious intent. The world is burned by madness. Scorched ever so deeply into our everyday lives. A bid we have decided in routine to take on. Rest assured we never had to.

Dear 2021, Please Take Notes
Dear 2021, In my 22 years of life, I've experienced some really good years. 2020 was not one of them. On a global scale, the world was dealing with a pandemic, widespread police brutality, and political madness. But on a personal level, my mental health was suffering, I encountered some financial problems, and I even lost some friends. Honestly, it wouldn't take much for you to be a step up from 2020, but I don't just want this year to be better than last year, I want it to be the best year I've ever had. I'm not one to try to relive my glory days, but there are simple things that have made the best years of my life, the best. And for 2021, I just want those simple moments back. The simple moments that made four years of my life stand out for the very best reasons. If I were you, I would take some notes.

Dear New Year.
Dear Naveena, I feel like we all use time as an excuse now. We wait for days, weeks, months, and even years to start that journey, project, idea we always wanted to do. Time has become an oppressive force for so many people that they start to see the world in numbers, and soon even you saw the world in numbers and it was suffocating.
