Step back, reflect and reboot


Once in a while, a ‘black swan’ event jolts us into appreciating the many things we routinely take for granted.

The pandemic reminded us just how precious simple face-to-face interactions and human connection truly are.

Ongoing geopolitical turbulence continues to underscore the hidden value of invisible supply chains—the lifelines delivering the essentials of our daily lives without fanfare or fuss. 

Here is a Ravi’s Corner poem from a New Year’s Eve during the height of the pandemic. It’s a tribute to “The Unknown Visitor” who helped us rediscover the worth of the simple, the ordinary, and the normal—leaving us a little better, stronger, and more resilient, with lessons to last a lifetime.

The Unknown Visitor

The Unknown Visitor walks in unannounced

The unfathomable damage sweeps the unprepared

The World stops

That lasts eternity

Things done normally  appear scary luxuries

Pause and Reflect …

None can stop my mind

Why fret

Get set

I can be reborn as many times

When I am alive

Every time

A little better

A little stronger

A little bolder

A little kinder

A little humbler

A new feeling..  A new energy..   A new determination

The sun shines

The Cosmos never stops

Let me create my new year

It is just another great day today

In the eternal cycle of life !

God Bless !
