It seems we were the chosen ones, perspicuously hand-picked to season the times of our lives with a certain unique piquancy that will certainly leave a distinct taste of victorious survival and an after-taste of realization in the mouths of those of us who outlast this calamity..

Who ever expected that we would one day be distanced so remotely?..like the tropical islands we once visited.. and that the homes we previously traded for those very tropical islands would be rendered our most desired getaway destinations..

The parables of the ideal world or life are not given, they are to be sensed.. and though humans are blessed with the senses to sense, many of us are devoid of any sense.. senselessly robbing nature of its pride and proudly wearing our crimes like royal capes and crowns..

And people began trading human values and the essence of true love for increasingly intimate romantic attachments with power and the tangible, material, temporary aspects of life..

Maybe a pandemic of obscure origin and profoundly prodigious proportions was an enforcement drive by a greater force.. to eradicate the solipsistic tendency of humans.. and to induce instinctive humanitarianism and respect for all of nature's creations..

Perhaps controlling the strings that restore and stabilize the ebb and flow of faith in a force of the highest order was necessary.. to sit us enfeebled humans down in our very own secluded quiet corners and kindly remind us who is effectively in charge..

Indeed it was necessary to render humans inscrutably sequestered in those little corners of the universe, to disband the negativity committees within our heads and instill infinite positivity within our beings, and the power to believe beyond perceived thresholds..

A crude didactic reminder to feed not just this bodily form and our egocentricity, but also to quench the spirit of the eternal portion of our existence and ensure we do not cease to exist on the final day with unloving, unfulfilled, uninspired life within our veins..

Might this have been a crucial foray to enforce at least a tide of spiritual enthusiasm and a wave of divine depth into the lives of humans, to save us from damnation in the sea of self-inflicted ignorance..

Or a gentle reminder to seek not just the zeal and glory of the proud staunch one noticeable in so called religious places among the masses, but the splendour of soulful solitude and becoming an inimitable staunch devotee of our own inner temple, discovering the serenity existent within our very own sacred confines of the soul..

Surely a lesson to curb the welter of destructive human perversity contemporaneous with the increasing decay of human morality and virtue.. and to revivify a peaceful, humble and honourable existence.
