<p>The year, 2020 has been a nightmarish one due to the impending<br />
COVID-19 situation in the world. As far as, the epidemic of Corona Virus<br />
Disease or, in common parlance COVID-19 is concerned, it has taught the<br />
world being many lessons for the times to come. Whether, we take an<br />
individualistic approach or, a collective approach, as far as, our outlook towards<br />
the epidemic is concerned, one thing is for sure that, each and every individual<br />
of this world has his/her own lesson/lessons to learn from this corona virus.<br />
Here, are few of the lessons that, I have been taught by the Corona Virus<br />
Disease (COVID-19) especially in the year 2020: -<br />
Firstly, I have learnt that, however be the vanity or, the sense of arrogance of<br />
we, the mankind over the divine elements of nature be, yet, it is these divine<br />
elements of nature which reigns supreme over us with the passage of time. We<br />
are just like a bubble playing over water surface before divinity which may<br />
burst anytime. Thus, corona virus has taught me that, there is an unseen element<br />
named divinity which, anyone of us cannot shed it off.<br />
Secondly, corona virus has also taught us that, as far as mankind is concerned, it<br />
must emphasise on, love over hatred, peace over calamity, as well as, probity<br />
over arrogance in their respective lives. This lesson is important in the sense<br />
that, mankind seems to put themselves on the backfoot due to the negative<br />
elements in them and, thereby, has brought about anarchy and chaos among<br />
them. Therefore, it is high time that, we, the mankind shed off the negative<br />
elements of ours and thus, put ourselves on the right track.<br />
Thirdly, corona virus has also taught me that, we need to shed tears on the pains<br />
and agonies as, living in one corner of this world while, those living in the other<br />
corners of this world are in trouble. As a whole, this virus has taught me, to turn<br />
the whole world into a global society or community and, thereby, fight with this<br />
deadly corona virus. All these, puts the onus on the mankind to show solidarity<br />
for the overall upliftment of all of us during this impending crisis looming over<br />
us.<br />
Fourthly, corona virus has taught me to wonder over the role of media in<br />
whatever form or manifestation and, its role in this crisis. It, also taught me that,<br />
media can act in this crisis situation of ours, as a unifying force, as it has done in the recent past. This whole fact has come to the world being as a ray of hope<br />
for the times to come by acting positively on the part of media in this regard.<br />
Therefore, the recent times has proved that, what science cannot heal during the<br />
impending virus attack can be soothed and healed by media among mankind by<br />
sharing the pains and agonies among them.<br />
Last but not the least, corona virus has taught me to no to be alone, as far as,<br />
our perspective towards this world and worldly affairs are concerned. We, the<br />
present globalised world is thus, turning fast into a small community, as far as,<br />
sharing both our joys as well as, our agonies of we, the world being. In a<br />
nutshell, the fight against corona virus has taught us as a whole, to look at this<br />
world as a microcosm of our deeds, thoughts and expressions as a whole.<br />
All in all, I believe as a world being that, the lessons that corona<br />
virus taught me is just ancillary to the lessons it has taught to the whole world in<br />
general. However, at the same time, the lessons taught by the corona virus may<br />
be looked into and analysed from the viewpoint one takes into one&rsquo;s life.<br />
Therefore, any discussion on lessons of corona virus teaching an individual like<br />
me remains inconclusive at a global perspective of the matter in hand.<br />
Therefore, it depends on the point of view and outlook of each and every<br />
individual of this world that he/she has towards calamities writ large, on<br />
analysing the life lessons that this virus teaches them. As such, this piece of<br />
writing remains inconclusive on a global forum even if, it may pacify my mind<br />
on the life lessons that corona virus has taught me during the impending crisis<br />
scenario.</p>
