The Lockdown

I sort of love and hate Internet Technology. I love it because the various app’s enable me to keep my contacts with my friends and relatives around the world during the lockdown, albeit virtually. I am also able to share my art works with art lovers despite the closure of galleries. As well, I get to watch and listen to some good movies, shows and concerts through some social media without travelling. However, our 5 senses are still not satisfied. We need to see, to hear, to smell, to touch and to embrace something or someone live that actual social contact carries. There comes nature that can bring this satisfaction to us. Luckily we can still take a walk outside and enjoy nature – smell the roses, hug a tree, touch a plant, watch and listen to the birds singing… till we can discard our masks and hug someone! Or visit the gallery to see some great works!
