When the lockdown started for the Pandemic in 2020, it was really confusing for all of us to think about what lies ahead. But as time went on there were many problems evolving  which made us worry to a great extent. There were solutions too. 

I have been working soon after my graduation. I was never jobless or workless, but when the pandemic struck , I really was in a tight corner. I had shifted to a new place close to my husbands office in 2019. and soon after that the lockdown started.

I started looking for new job before the lockdown and I got appointed in an office where I was working . In the meantime , I got a chance to crack the interview in a government school. This was a very big opportunity for me. But when the lockdown struck I had to leave the job which I was doing because I had no option to work from home. I had to leave the job and just then I saw my name selected in the merit list of the government school, who appointed me as a teacher. I felt very very happy but there was the twist in the story.

My job was on hold for the time being because of the Pandemic. No schools would be working as long the lockdown was there. I was surprised and also disappointed ….!!!

I had always tried hard for a teaching job and and I have worked as a teacher before. I wanted to get this placement . I was happy that I got appointed in this school. But …………..!!!!!

Then I was totally in a mess as to what I would do as a source of income because I wanted to look for new ways…

I tried to forget all my failures and tried to start fresh. ….with a fresh mind and fresh soul…..!!  My body was the same but I was a changed person from inside….!!

I knew I have to accept the challenge  of the situation. I tried all the online sources to get a placement . I was not entertained because of the work-from-home condition. 

Then I  started giving online singing classes and the online platforms really helped me a lot. I could make an earning source for myself. Then I had more plans to execute…!!

I invested my earning on a small startup business on handmade items  and other materials. 

I was lucky this time too. …!!!

I am running a business which is in a somewhat good flow. And my singing classes are also helping me to use my skill. 

I have more creative things coming into my mind which I want to execute in this lockdown season. …!!

I know there are hard times faced by many of us during the lockdown but, don't give up as long as you can…..!!

Not everything is dark in everybody's life…..although its a lockdown in the Pandemic….!!!!!

Within darkness you have to find hope…!!!!
