Better Life-- The Diary Game-- 11th May 2021

Almost one month of lockdown, pandemic, chaotic environment, especially at health facilities, the one whose loved ones are COVID-19 positive can understand the stressful events at the moment.

Fake news and getting panicked due to it are more rampant than the actual situation in India right now.

In my family, three are COVID-19 positive now, one is hospitalized(age above 62) and the rest of the two are home quarantined. I had visited my family last week, went to my village, and made all the necessary arrangements(whatever I could) required to tackle the situation.

Last week was really disturbing. But now things have little changed and at least improving. Now vaccination campaign has started for the age group of 18-45. I have not booked the registration yet. But I will do it soon. I am taking extreme precautions these days, I already have a medical condition, Bronchitis, COVID-19 could further complicate my medical condition.

My friend's father died due to COVID-19 last week. And the lockdown in the city has been extended until 17th May. I think it will further be extended, I am anticipating at least towards the end of June.

Considering the size of the population in India, at least 30-40% needs to be inoculated to curb the rising number of cases.

I wake up to a beautiful morning today as usual at 4:35 AM. It was a bright sunny day and the scorching heat after 1:00 PM is negatively affecting my productivity. Bhopal is hardly 31 KM away from the tropic of cancer. So you can imagine the extent of heat one has to deal with, living near the tropic of cancer.

But I still love a Summer day, ask why? Because I get a chance to sleep under the sky, the open terrace, and steemiting inside the foldable mosquito net from 7 PM and beyond until I retire at 11:30 PM or so is the best ever package summer season brings for me. I can truly experience twinkle twinkle little star. I accommodate all of them in my horizon when I sleep outdoor. I have also experienced that the quality of sleep outdoor is much better, I always feel more energetic when I sleep under the sky.

Today I prepared "dal, chawal". I am not going outside even to buy vegetables, just managing my day with whatever stock I have at the moment. I think I can easily manage it for the next 10 days or so. Staying at home, not going outside is also a positive contribution to society at this moment.

I completely engaged myself in the entire afternoon session in Steem Blockchain. I curated the Indian community with the Steemcurator07 account. The best part is that the engagement & activities have greatly improved. That's always a soothing experience for community leaders.

I also kept on tracking the list of users in Project Affable(may'2021) with the help of stardlord28. The response is literally a positive endorsement of this Engagement League and it definitely builds a better social platform with healthy engagement.

After a year, a lot of things have changed in Steemit, the activities are more fluid now, with tons of community-led initiatives. We are thriving and of course, leading the charge. Euphoria!

As usual, I retired at 11:30 PM. With my foldable mosquito net, outdoor camping(precisely open terrace), free flow of air, and lots of stars on my horizon, what a good night's sleep!

Thank you.
