Many people have asked me if I think there is a purpose behind Covid-19. I believe it is offering us learning and healing on so many levels. The Spring lockdown was like humanity pressing the ‘pause’ button. Most of us were restricted to our homes with little external stimulation. It gave us time to reflect on who and what was important to us in our life.
As a result many people are choosing to live their life differently.
Certainly in London there is a building trend of people deciding to live outside of the city where there is more space and nature. They are limiting their work time in the office and commuting only when necessary.
I am truly sorry if you or your loved ones have been directly impacted by Covid-19. It can be a traumatic experience and is not to be trivialised. However the pandemic has created a ‘burning platform’ globally to inspire humanity to change. Human activity is affecting Earth and all that lives there.
During the pandemic I have seen great acts of kindness and it has strengthened communities. In my opinion there is great value in these changes.
In my own small way I have reached out to my community of spiritual friends and through the lockdown we had discussions on the purpose of the virus, how we were feeling personally and provided each other with support and encouragement. If you are feeling a desire to see what others are feeling and thinking take a look at the free book of our collated conversations. It includes wonderful pictures by my friend Irene Gloux depicting hers and humanity’s progression through the pandemic.
Our home, Mother Earth, is in our hands. Together we can make it a good place for our children and grandchildren.
