A Thank you Note #1

 

Who would’ve thought these days would come where masking your face is advised rather than showing your true self. It isn’t really an issue because people don’t have to mask their smiles anymore over this disheartening pandemic. The masks haven’t only replaced the colour of lipstick on our lips but also the colour of our lives.

Everyone is hearing the same slogans every day, “Stay Safe, Stay Home, Sanitize!”. But only because of the doctors of our nation, we are living in faith and not fear;

The doctors who are working so hard for keeping us alive by holding to our souls by pulling on a rope of credence; The doctors who, just like Lord Krishna, are balancing their shield and services on their fingers and keeping the virus from touching mother Earth; The doctors who are going arm to arm and wrestling with the devil in disguise; The doctors who are trying to hold our hands from across the walls by fighting against the green sorrows; The doctors who are holding the earth like a cotton ball in their hands and blowing the fibres of the virus off of us; The doctors, whose families are holding on to them from a rope of hope while they swim in the waters of the virus for us.

I have heard before that doctors are angels in disguise. But I would like to disagree. Because they aren’t just angels. They are gods to pray to.
