My take on Ending 120 days lockdown!

-
It's very true that people have been starving as the source of their income has been lost and the economy will struggle for so long. The schools and colleges will finally get to charge their students, but I'm happy that the teachers who have been working so hard to keep students like us engaged in studies with such dedication will finally be rewarded.
But do we have enough equipment and test kits to keep our doctors safe, to get ourselves tested?
I was extremely awed at the sudden decision of the Government to start the lockdown days ago. But ending it in such haphazard manner is going to bring disastrous situation. While soooooo many people across the border will finally come home, without bending their ways, we all are in verse of getting infected as we lack proper quarantine and isolation facilities, and needless to say about the condition of the health care system of the country.
People have already started walking along without wearing any masks and taking any other preventive measures. This will just worsen the situation.
We literally have no clue about who around us is infected because we're so unaware and careless that were afraid to get ourselves tested because we think we'll be infected as we visit the hospitals. Now as people will be travelling, the condition seems to get worse each passing day.
Is it really going to be the end of the lockdown or just a "break" before the lockdown is imposed again after the rate of Covid-19 infection climb off the chart?
How do you all think we can overcome the disaster that awaits?

I extend my sincere apology to anyone who is hurt through the post. I am not a Newar, but I've lived most of my life in Patan. I've lived in the Newar community and have many friends who are the Newars. Yes, I've been to the Bhojs and Nakthyas. More than anything I respect the sentiments and their thrive to save every little part of their culture. I've seen the Jatras and also understand the sentiments attached to it. I saw several posts that flooded on my social media feed, numerous memes that were made, and read several Newar and other communities blame game, the hatred people spill out on each other's ethnicity, culture and tradition. Hey you! Yes, you! I heard that you were craving to go to Lahana ever since the lockdown begun to satisfy your cravings for the delicious chhoila and chyang! Oh, not to mention your love for the ...

Imperfecto?

-
No they aren't Romeo and Juliet.  She likes to eat junk, his lifestyle is rather focused on fitness. She likes the privacy of their relationship, he'd rather want her to confess.. No, they aren't alike. But don't they say that the opposites attract? She likes to cuddle and sleep, he wants a peck of kiss. She likes to read novels, he loves to watch movies. No, they aren't the perfect couple. But don't they say that the perfects distract? She likes to talk and dance and sing and eat, he looks at her, all imperfections he sees. She likes to take pictures abstract, he prefers portraits as he strikes a pose on his seat. No, they don't just express love for each other always. But didn't you say love fades as you adapt?  They are like Tom and Jerry. They are like "Hum" and  "Tum. They are like rainbows and rain. Crying together but smiling at the end as they forget the pain. Oh yes! They have one thing is common, they both like to dance and both ...

Privilege, Perception, and Breaking Assumptions, One Earned Step at a Time

-
Pragya talks about "Privilege, Perception, and Breaking Assumptions, One Earned Step at a Time" Yes, I am a second-generation lawyer. And yes, I am someone’s daughter. That is a fact. It does come with certain privileges—doors open faster, networks build more easily, and I often don’t have to start from ground zero. I acknowledge that completely. But what people often don’t see is what comes with that privilege—the weight of constantly being judged. My achievements are casually dismissed with, “Well, of course, she knows that she’s grown up around it.” But when I fail? That failure is celebrated—“Even with all that support, she couldn’t do this.” First of all, let me make one thing clear—we don’t sit around the dinner table discussing legal codes and courtroom strategies. My parents never raised me with legal books on the dining table. We talk like any other family does. We share stories about our day, we laugh, we listen, and sometimes, sure, something from work slips in...
