Sunday, May 31, 2020 (lockdown has ended)

Finally government does not increase the duration of lockdown and businesses open from today. The public transports especially buses are going to run from tomorrow. But public must follow some "hygiene instructions" imposed by the government. Everything seems normal. Is it true or is it going to be a nightmare?????

I don’t know the exact answer. My estimation indicates me that something worst is going to happen. The number of infected persons is increasing day by day.  

When things like this had just started happening, I ate burgers, Sharwma  and  other foods. Because life is totally uncertain and we don’t know about duration of our life. And it’s not in our hand either.    

Monday, May 25, 2020 (Eid during the period of Lockdown)

It is Eid Ul Fitr-2020. After fasting 30 days, Eid Ul Fitr comes to every Muslim as the biggest festival. Scenario is little different this year as the world is not a safe place at all. The whole world is covered with the cloud of fear. The fear comes from Corona virus. The number of infected persons is increasing day by day which is not a good sign at all. At the end of March, Bangladesh was in last 30^th country and today it stands at 25^th country. At the same time, government plans to withdraw restriction imposed by them. 

From my childhood, Eid Ul Fitr is very special. After all, it is a festival for celebrating with family, friends, relatives. Last year, I did not go anywhere but there was no fear at that time. I have not gone to mosque for offering Eid prayer this year, though the prayers were allowed to offer in the mosques now.

Today, I feel like remaining in a jail. The worst part is that I have the key to unlock the prison but I want to remain in the prison. :) 

Tuesday, May 19, 2020

When someone walks on a crowd less road, the person may feel feared for loneliness. Human beings can not live alone. They need persons and Their cooperation. That’s why they need family as well as society.

Right now, we need social distance for the prevention of spreading COVID-19. But gossiping and cooperating with others become a habit for the most of us. And habit is the second nature. We never want changes in our life, the way we are, behavior pattern  and thinking pattern.     

People have excuses for any situation in Bangladesh. I have been seeing the fact since my childhood. They have an excuse for any unfavourable situation or they blame others for the unsuccessful attempts.

In the crisis of COVID-19, we have excuses and blame each others for the situation. Most of us are problem finder and few persons are solution Oriented.

I don’t have fear for walking on a crowd less road. I know every unsuccessful attempts has its own story. There may be some objects resisting the Success and the objects resisting the success are responsible. But i Avoid blaming persons or objects and try to develop myself. And i recognized that I easily got troubling for many things but I found solution for the problem somehow. Because i want to get solution rather than to ask only question without finding the solution.

Toda,  the roads are heavy crowded which makes me afraid. I don’t know what will happen net. But current scenario is not favorable at all.                           

Friday, May 15, 2020 (Durning the days of Quarantine, part-6)

I know the unlimited supply of any thing destroys the demand of that thing. Therefore, the value of that thing becomes zero. Even though it is necessary for life, we don’t care about it. We need Oxygen to live but we never care about it due to unlimited supply. 

There is unlimited time now  and i don’t know about it’s ending point. I try to use it in a proper way. But maintaining routine is very difficult now. At the same time, i miss those days when i could go to any place as i wanted. I could not move without fear for 2 months. No one wants restricted life. In fact, freedom is the ultimate goal for many persons.  

The sky is big and it is definitely bigger than our expectation. It is a long time now and there is a lot of times needed to end it. Day by day, the situation is becoming more crucial. 

          

Friday, May 08, 2020 (During the period of Lockdown, Part-5)

Before the lockdown, I recognized that the lockdown situation could also be implemented in our country because all the countries around the globe had started locking down at that time. So, I was pretty sure about happening same thing in Bangladesh.

I went to saloon on 17.03.2020 last time and I found there were no ways to avoid transmission of Virus in that place. 

I took decision to buy shaving materials. I never cut my beard myself and always went to saloon to cut it. I started shaving my bread from 2009 in Saloons. Situation things remain same. But changing situation teaches us many things and we must crop up with existing situation.

Similarly, I became bald because there was no scope to cut hair.It was done by my nephew and wife.

Wednesday, May 6, 2020 (days during quarantine, part-04)

Minutes are becoming hours, hours are becoming days and days are becoming months now. I can see that most of us become frustrated or bored due to lockdown. By the way, lockdown is just a title in our country now. Reality is that there are too much cars and crowd in the roads. 

Similarly, the government has taken decision to open every thing step by step and they already allowed germants to continue their operation in a time when the rate of infected persons are raising day by day. At the same time, shopping malls are going to be opened on 10th day. 

If the lockdown continues for a long time, it will definitely collapse our economy. But the question is that "is it right time to open every thing???".

I don't know what the government should do. But it is not right time to do it from my point of view. We should not blame our government either as the citizens of the country are not conscious about the concern. If they follow the instructions prescribed by the government, corona virus can be removed easily. Similarly, whenever government has taken a strict step to succeed the lockdown, people start criticizing the step. People think emotionally and they don't use logic which is the biggest drawback in our country. 

Thursday, April 30, 2020 (During the period of quarantine, part-3)

Every thing is ready to start again. In fact, many organizations like manufacturing section are permitted to run their business and they also have started their business activities. Similarly, some restaurants are also allowed to open and they have opened their restaurants. By seeing those information, one may think that we have made a victory again COVID-19. But reality is something else. Government says that USA or Europe have decided to break the quarantine very soon and we are also ready for breaking quarantine. But there is a declining trend in USA or Europe. The number of patients is increasing day by day in our country. 

Is it a great decision to open all now???? 

Well, one may argue that quarantine Kills people by the lack of foods as most of the people live below the poverty line. Reality is that quarantine will kill poor for sure. Most of us don't have saving and quarantine stops us from earning money. 

Similarly, breaking quarantine will result in dieing random people. But the number will be huge. Because we don't have too much medical facilities to handle it. 

I don't know what the best solution is. But it's not the right time to break quarantine as the number of cases is increasing every day. 

Saturday, April 25, 2020 (Staring the month of Ramadan during the period of quarantine)

So, it's the first day of Ramada-2020 but everything is not usual like other years. Every year, the day starts like a festival but the scenario is totally different year this. There is no iftar shop this year. Infact, there is also restriction on "Tarabi" Prayer. 

Many initiatives are taken but it is not implemented properly. People still go outside with or without needs. We don't properly understand the concept of quarantine. 

Today, I have visited my work station and it is approximately empty. Only 10/12 persons are there. 

Though I am fasting, the feeling of fasting is not same as previous years. Life is like a jail now. But the scenario will change one day which every will be normal. 

Saturday, April 18, 2020 (Days of Quarantine)

The days of quarantine are days without any light. The light of hopes is missing. No one knows when the days of quarantine will end. it seems like a nightmare and there is a hope of overcoming nightmares someday. 

The quarantine or general government holidays started on 25 March and announced to end on 25 April after extending 4/5 times. But it will not end on 25 April for sure and no one knows the ending date of it. Everything is quiet uncertain. The main reason behind it is obviously the lack of public conscious. They don’t follow any rules and regulation which will make hamper the life of others. I visited office last time on 7 April as TV industry is outside of this general public holiday. The office still runs with a limited employees of 20/25 persons. 

I don’t get any holiday in my life without a specific period of time. In fact, the situation like this will not be faced by me hopefully in my life time. I go to bed around 1 AM and wake up around 10 AM. But dreams are horrible. I wake up frequently in nights with terrible dreams like finding water to wash hands. Things like this started around 10/12 march. Sometimes, I wake up in the night and wash my hand with hand sanitizer then I realize it's just a dream. There is a mental pressure in me now. Obviously it is because the news channels where there is no news expect Corona discussion. There may be one of the two things; firstly I am too much panic or secondly I am too much conscious about the concern. Maybe I am both panic and conscious. It doesn't matter which situation is true. But there is restlessness inside my mind all the days.

After waking up, I turn on my PC to edit videos for YouTube and switch on TV at the same time to watch news. After taking bath, I do random works like using pc or playing Pubg or other activities. For some days, I use that slot for learning Adobe Illustrator. But there is a long way to learn it properly. I watch news again after then and watch movies later on. At the same things, I teach my wife about Math, English and more on. Before going to bed, I play Pubg which is a popular game now-a-days. Days become bored because there is no specific time period of it. I have also started writing a review of my life in the last decade. I am little low and also have too many things to do. There are some positive things too like giving time to my family.

I have been feeling light fever and headache from today's morning. I know it's just a normal fever and headache but it also makes me panic in some degrees.

The days of quarantine are not enjoyable at all and those seem dark and darker with every passing day. I just want to see the light of hope now. I know everything will be normal one day and I am just waiting for it. 

Tuesday, April 14, 2020 (New Year)

Today is 14^th April and it is the first day of the year of Bangla Calendar. Every year the day is celebrated with joys and various program but the scenario is totally different this year. There are no programs or events. 

Of Course, the reason behind it is obviously Corona virus crisis. The impacts of it will exist for a long period of time. But the day after long period of time will be beautiful. There will be public gathering, no restrictions on movement. 

I hope that the crisis moment will end up quickly and the nation will return on it's original form. 😊😊

By the way, it's also my father's birthday. He was born on this day in 1952. So what we lost our connection in this world, one day we will meet. Happy Birthday Abbu. 

Sunday, April 12, 2020 (Afraid of COVID-19)

A Corona Virus infected person was detected on 08.04.2020 nearby my home. People have been terrified quickly. They took many steps quick after knowing it. Blocking roads, requesting to stay home, limiting public excess in markets were some of them. On the evening, I thought my family was safe as well as my villagers. After all, limiting public excess is the only way to prevent the pandemic disease. So, I was happy to see steps taken by all at that time. 

Dreams have been broken very quickly. Dreams have been broken in quickest time when we expect that Bangladeshi people follow rules and regulation for a particular situation. Most of us do not know or have very limited idea about virus. So, it is obvious that they don’t care about anything. 

Same thing happened with me also. My dreams have been broken on the next day when people violated all the steps. They did not follow any instruction. They went to here and there, gathered for gossiping in roads. Similarly, the market (known as Bazar) was also opened 2 day later. 

I don’t have any problem with anyone’s activity. It is his/her right to do it. When anyone’s activity hampers other’s life, I definitely have objection. Because he/she does have any right to hamper other’s life. Corona Virus is transmitted human to human. Right now, public gathering helps COVID-19 virus to spread more and more. So, public gathering means spreading the virus to others. 

The situation of our country is going to be worst. There are 139 persons found today with Corona infection and 3 persons died with Corona. As a total, 621 persons are infected and 34 of them died. More than 1.8 Million are infected and more than 1,12,000 died as per 12.04.2020.

 But the rate of infection of Bangladesh is rising in geometric way which is not good news for sure. 

From my point of views, the main problem is that most of us do not want to follow any rules and regulation. Similarly, decision makers in small areas are not well educated. They don’t have proper idea about virus. The problem can not be solved in one da And changing people's mentality in one day is not possible either.
