As the world continues to struggle with a virus that eradicated thousands of lives in matters of weeks, the blue skies and sun keep shining in most parts of the world.
As thousands of healthcare professionals work endlessly to save lives in conditions we would not be able to grasp with our rational mind, dolphins appear in Venice.
As the elderly are locked down in complete isolation so scared by their vulnerability and terrified to die, some people continue to put them at risk.
As many adults and children have lost their grandparents and loved ones, many keep celebrating life within their balconies.
This dichotomy between death and life is hard to grasp or to face from our human mind.
Human life is so precious and full of wonder and yet so vulnerable as Corona has shown us over these past weeks.
In these times, the human mind, heart and soul will experience the unknown and the dichotomy of life and death differently.
This is the strength of human diversity.
But it never means nor shall it ever diminish the lives that are lost during this turmoil.
These lives will be remembered hopefully across the globe as symbols for bringing humanity closer in times of darkness.
These lives may have passed in body but their souls will live on forever, this is what I choose to believe.
My father passed away in matters of days because all of his organs stopped working.
We never saw it coming nor did we know how to move on living life.
At the time of his passing a few years ago, blame and anger prevailed.
Soon after I kept seeing a star high in the sky every time he crossed my mind and touched my heart and soul.
I choose to believe that the sky will be filled with new stars.
Stars which will shine bright so we may always remember that life is fragile and vulnerable.
Stars which will shine the light on the essence of humanity present in all of us across the world.
Sending only love and light to those who passed, to those who are struggling and to those who are trying to survive during the unknown.
Remembering the stars which are shining bright in the skies
