During this quarantine phase, one cannot do anything but live through it. So this article is for all those people who are Living far away from their loved ones. This article is for those people who miss their loved ones and the delicious home made food. 🍰

Missing your loved ones at this time is obvious. We are all living in times where we cannot be close to everyone, but all we can do is miss them and make sure they are safe. Some people prefer to stay in touch via SMS, video calls, etc. I know we live in a world🌍 full of technology and video calling is easy and the best solution for now, but the memories that you share with that special someone that is what stays with us and that is what you sleep with at night.

Those who are away from their family might think about the amazing nights you have spent with your family playing stupid board games where most of them cheated their way till the end of the game and yet ended up losing, cooking sessions with your mother, which lead to a flour war, fixing the bike/car with your father, learning how to play a sport🏊 with your sibling and they are equally bad at it. These memories are with you and that is what you miss the most. Growing up you must have lost a few close relatives/ family/ friends, but their memories stay with you.

The sleepover that you had at your best friend’s place, the endless conversation about everything that seemed important at that time, but was just so irrelevant, the fights that you had, tried to protect each other, all the crazy amount of munchies that you ate together while you were trying to have a meaningless conversation or the times where you all were stalking each others loved ones or so they thought it would be. These things/memories were the best part of your life while growing up.

Those who are stuck in this lock down with their spouse or their loved ones are just lucky and those who are not are just holding onto all the crazy memories that you have with them. The first drive with them, the first ice-cream, the kiss on the Ferris wheel, sneaking out of the house just to meet them, the first romantic date, the first horror movie together, the comfort you get from them when you are sick, first trip together and a whole lot of other things which I won’t be able to put into words, you are going to hold onto these memories and that is what is going to help you through this phase.

For all you people out there- Hold onto these wonderful memories and keep loving the people who help you make such memories. This time will pass just like any other, ONE DAY AT A TIME!
