Summary

The article reflects on the irony of the word "positive" becoming negative in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing the need for a shift in attitude and lifestyle to maintain mental and physical well-being.

Abstract

The article discusses the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the connotations of the word "positive," traditionally associated with optimism and good fortune. In 2020, being "positive" for COVID-19 has become synonymous with illness and misfortune, contrasting sharply with the hopeful plans and resolutions typically associated with the New Year. The author delves into the concept of luck, asserting that all events, good or bad, are ultimately determined by divine will rather than arbitrary chance. The pandemic is presented as a destined challenge that humanity must face, with the emphasis on adapting to a new, more cautious way of life. The article advocates for a positive mental attitude and proactive health practices as essential tools in combating the virus and preserving harmony in life.

The Most Negative Word in 2020 is “Positive”

To be positive for a disease generates negative impression on well being.

New Year’s arrival matters a lot in every body’s life.

People have many plans associated with the New Year.

These may be; buying a house ( or renovating the old one), switching to a new job or business, going to world tour, getting married, offering the pilgrimage…hence it could be a long list of to do things .

Same was the case with the year 2020.

As many people plan and decide the events in accordance with planetary movements to avoid any possible hurdles.

Let me say, in doing so, people think to overcome some sort of bad luck.

There is need to clear the concept of LUCK…

God has not created anything to be cursed upon.

In some societies in the world, there are certain numbers, figures, signs and gestures that are taken to be associated with good or bad luck.

But be clear here, all the good or bad things that happen to man are by the WILL of God. There is no role of luck. Destiny of man has been created by God, man is given the right or authority to find and opt for him among the choices in all the matters of life. In doing so, if a man makes a wrong choice, something wrong may happen to him. Trust me…it is not sort of what people call it… bad luck. But ‘actually’ he is destined to face that tough time, despite his struggle to bypass it.

The major misfortune one may think of in 2020 is facing the disastrous outbreak of COVID-19.

The most negative word one may think of in this scenario for 2020 is POSITIVE…to be positive for COVID-19

COVID-19 positive is a threat to one’s peace of mind and harmonious life

We must remember, no one can avoid the decree of fate. We have had to pass through this phase. It was destined.

What is in our hands now? We have to change our attitude towards life.

We have to start living a more supervised life. We have to revise our manners of eating, drinking, playing, working, sleeping, meeting.

We have to switch to a life friendly mode of practice.

Most important of all…

To avoid being positive for COVID 19, please STAY POSITIVE, as mental and physical well being is important of all.
