I clicked PAUSE for a moment of reflection

I am on hospitalization leave for two weeks.
During this time, there is a moment to PAUSE in the forward flowing time and so much reflection of life has taken place.

What is life to me? to all of us?

I lost a beautiful young one 2 weeks ago. One that I barely got to touch in my hands, one that could not open the eyes to see this world as it is now.
The year is 2020. It is the year that started with so much headlines on the coronavirus spreading like a silent wildfire in the dryest forest. We cannot see the spread but we can feel the damages to wherever it crosses path. It is such a devastating state; fear, starvation, joblessness, pain, deaths all around the world at a much faster speed. It surely is not a nice sight to be coming to a world at this time.

We are asked to stay home.
This is the time to appreciate the luxury of family time, to place priorities on what is needed over what is wanted.

I had time to finish 3 good reads. One about not worrying during the darkest lowest moments, One about never fearing to make a change because the comfort of staying the same is the riskiest step, One about the secrets and mantras of life. 
All three gave me a good look at where I am now in life and how I want to move forward. I need a RESET after this PAUSE. That's where I will start - to make a small positive change everyday until it creates a ripple effect to my surroundings.
