• By now three weeks of forced lockdown has greatly succeeded in bringing out mixed emotions in most of us right from relief, anxiety, nervousness, anticipation, pall of gloom, fear of the unknown, introspection and what all what not. Strictly abiding by the instructions of the Government, people have followed the diktat with due diligence and one of the major recommendations was to discontinue availing services of the housemaids as part of social distancing measures. This one particular reference has transformed many a families’ equations with respect to shared responsibilities of managing daily routines to a great extent.

PC: BBC

• Speaking specifically of urban clutters, hitherto considered as menial jobs not befitting an evolved society hell bent on exhibiting self-aggrandizement purely based on ill-advised superiority complex, lockdown has opened up many a clogged minds to appreciate what dignity of labor truly means. Where once housemaids, drivers, gardeners, utility workers and small time vendors were mostly looked down with such consternation and haughtiness has suddenly paved way for an altered but welcome viewpoint. Respecting what scores of people undertake to keep the society going by mostly underpaid labor will never be the same again.

PC: Swati Shalini

• We as a society were simply so used to availing the services of help-groups without ever compassionately considering their unheralded contributions are finally forced to concede grounds. Humbly accepting the inevitability of their defining roles that clearly shapes our daily lives in more ways than one will become new reality going ahead. As such, present time is indeed ripe to imbibe in our younger generation virtues about recognizing and upholding the self-respect of humankind without succumbing to deceitful rhetoric of ‘Higher echelons of society’. Make no mistake, humanity and humanity alone shall prevail ultimately.

• Plenty of time to idle around has precisely provided us an opportunity to not only ponder over spiritually, holistically and introspectively but also guide us to dramatically amend our priorities in life. One such priority should be to uphold dignity of labor too when life returns back to normalcy sooner than later. Hopefully, manmade glass-ceiling of profoundly pretentious social strata would be shattered and in its place, renewed healthy respect and disposition towards fellow human beings irrespective of work profile would be the new norm.

PC: Global Banking and Finance

• As the saying goes – whatever happens, happens for the good – I for one shall be eagerly looking forward to an altered regimen in the changed scenario that we all anticipates for the betterment of the society.
