In a wake of the eye.....
New York 'the city that never sleeps' is filled with a deafening silence.
In Paris the 'city of romance ' even a pin drop could be heard. London & Rome 'the eternal city' is quiet.
And Nairobi is still....
Our cities have turned to ghost towns
Churches, mosques, parks,famous monuments sites, restaurants and stadiums are silent.
Mecca is empty!.
Disney is not showing its Majic.
The busiest places are now hospitals and cemeteries.
Famous football leagues, global fashion shows, festivals all put on stand still.
Businesses are going online , major meetings cancelled and the line the developed and developing is blurred.
Celebrities have stopped celebrations. Our titles and status do not matter right now but what matters is humanity and staying alive.
Regardless of some of our multiple nationality cards and citizenship we cannot go outside and our savings are being used to purchase the bare necessities.
Our outdoor clothes are now gathering dust while we get used to wearing our indoor clothes that have become the latest fashion statement.
We went to watch animals in cages but now as we are caged up the animals roam freely watching us.
And with all this happening the sun is still rises and the birds still sing, plants still grow and animals still feed. Life carries on if not just very differently.
And when all this is over and we reflect on it let's reflect with a lesson learnt that Life is precious, living is a blessing and nothing matters more than life itself. If health is good everything will be good. Health of the earth and all its inhabitants.
One lesson I take forward is to never take life lightly and live every moment in its fullest.
Life is essential , everything else is just a frilly decoration.
