We cling to the depressing news and wait for the end of the world. Don’t keep counting the sick and the dead all the time! After all, we are trying to find a cure for this affliction. It pains us to look at this outrage. How much grief … We have become sensitive to the grief of others as we this is no longer an abstract grief somewhere far away, it concerns everyone.
We are breathlessly following the tragedy in Italy and Spain. We sympathize with them and feel for them from the bottom of our hearts. Although until recently there was much more grief in Syria, but then it was far away. A pandemic is a general woe that has descended upon the planet. This terrible virus came to everyone and all at once!
Scientists study the virus as an amazing manifestation of nature. Viruses have DNA and RNA. DNA is a carrier of information in general. RNA is the executive organ of the system on instructions from DNA. So, the coronavirus is an RNA (executive) virus. Infection occurs when one virus lands on a cell and injects RNA into it. In this cell, viruses multiply on everything ready and already thousands spread in the body, affecting other cells and producing offspring at an enormous rate. When one person’s cells are lacking, the virus moves into another person’s body. That is, the virus is not alone. There are many of them, and they have some kind of communication. At least, that’s what scientists say.
So this general organism, made up of little singles, is exactly the same system as we humans have. The virus did not come to me individually, but to everyone at once, and it affects everyone: some in a mild form and some in a severe form.
How about looking at this similarity from a different angle? After all, humanity, we before the virus were a very antagonistic, chaotic, greedy organism. We had reached the end of the line and were afraid to admit it to ourselves. We just didn’t see it, and now we see the absurdity of the world we lived in. In short, running after the pleasures imposed on us by those who made money off of us. To do this, we spent the money we earned through hard work. And we had a hard time falling asleep, only to wake up in the morning as if it were Groundhog Day. And so it is every day, year after year.
And here comes the virus with the program laid down by nature. Introduces it into human cells. The cells receive new information from the virus and execute nature’s program. As panic develops, the first positive tidings of program switching appear. It seems we, as humanity, have entered a new stage of evolution. People change their focus from receiving to giving.
There are not enough masks around the world. The whole world is crying. China responded and began producing masks and sent 2 million masks to the European Union, as well as special masks and test kits. People take their parents out of nursing homes to shield them from the coronavirus in their home and provide them with comfort and care. Young and healthy volunteers help retirees. Well, we can, if we feel the need to care for our neighbor! The main thing is not to forget.
Now is the time to do an analysis of our past and figure out what kind of happy future we want. A future where everyone’s individuality is revered because the other person is not making money off of you.
For example, a person has a unique gift for teaching. In life before the coronavirus, a man would have created his own business and tried to sell his gift for as high a price as possible. Pleasure is money, and money is the freedom to get pleasures for yourself. There is always a contradiction between good honest work and exorbitant rewards for a talented person. These are two things with opposite vectors. Giving others your whole self implies giving your talent to others, not selling it.
Imagine how many talented educators there are around the world today who understand how to teach children rather than raping them with stupid tests. Understanding that everyone needs a different speed and a different approach. Now is the time, while all the kids are at home, to organize a single, worldwide virtual school. When the quarantine is lifted, the children will continue to study and communicate virtually with their co-students. Perhaps the symposia of students of this unified school will be far more productive and important than the glitter-filled pride conferences of the past.
It’s time to invest in our children and train them to be good leaders according to the principle “Teach the young man in his ways. Not everyone is going to be a biochemist or a historian. We need different and unique, complementary personalities, not a stamped out of the press of bureaucrats something average. Today it is more important to teach children about life and proper relationships. I don’t know about you, but I would like my child to go to a school where there is no confrontation between races, cultures, and religions, where gifted teachers from different countries with an understanding of different cultures and traditions teach.
There is time to think about such plans in quarantine. Ask ourselves the question: What would we like to see the world like when all the restrictions are lifted and we return to the usual conditions? Even if nothing outwardly changes, the change in our relationship will turn hell into heaven.
In the meantime, we need to wait in isolation for a little while and let nature’s program work with us. Without panic and anxiety, fear and despair, we should isolate ourselves and look for the positive things that the coronavirus has brought us
