Covid Caught Me In The Middle Of My HIVE/LEO Peak!

(Edited)

Yesterday I found out that I am Covid-19 +ve along with my mother, wife & house help. The only person in the house who is still not infected is my 6-month-old baby or maybe he is and not showing any symptoms. In any case, luckily the little man is doing just fine. It's us who are pretty much exhausted physically & mentally although we all have mild symptoms.

My mother got it first and it came down to all of us from her, most probably. She's the only one who goes regularly to her office as she's a government employee. My wife & I stay at home all day working on our daily jobs and taking care of the baby. We don't go out as much because we didn't want to get into the situation in which we are right now. Unlucky us, cannot blame anyone for this. One cannot stay at home forever, right?

Right now the condition in #India is so bad and many people are dying daily. This second wave is more infectious, thus deadlier than the previous one. The government is doing nothing as usual. Our healthcare system is at a standstill. Health workers putting in extra hours endangering their own lives & not meeting their families for days just to support the overflow of patients. People are not getting medicines or proper medical facilities, thousands of ambulances lined up in front of hospitals carrying patients ready to be admitted but all in vain. State governments are hiding the number of infections & deaths reported every day. They have asked private labs to stop testing. No testing, No rise in Covid-19 +ve cases. All of us are on our own now!

Fortunately, where I live, people are very supportive, we get all the help we need. Our neighbors are supplying food to us so we are good at that front. I come from a middle-class family & we are in a much better position than most of the people out there. India is a poor & populous country. The cost of one person's life is next to nothing in the eyes of the government. The prime minister tells us to stay inside under lockdown while he goes out attending his election rallies calling people in huge numbers to vote for him. That's the state of my country! I am so frustrated with the current scenario that I could write a huge ass post to vent out. But I am going to stop for now since I need to take care of my mental health which I feel is more important right now!

HIVE/LEO To The Rescue

I have been posting daily since Monday and it's been going great so far. All thanks to you guys for the support. Especially @cflclosers, who along with @onealfa.leo, has been supporting me for a week at least once every day. Covid-19 didn't affect my consistency for the first four days of the week and in fact, it made me spend more time on the platform since I was not doing anything else. Isolated myself in my room and sometimes go out to check on the little man and everyone else. But... today and yesterday, I barely managed to be active on the platform. For a moment, I thought of skipping today's post but then I don't want to miss my streak. Call it FOMO or whatever but momentum is the key to content creation. I even wanted to comment on so many posts I read today but couldn't continue doing it for long. Not because I am exhausted but because I didn't feel like it. I got to know about @leomarkettalk about a few days ago, an initiative by @taskmaster4450 to boost engagement on LeoFinance but I haven't properly participated in it because of the same reason. I recently joined two discord servers, one called "Smile" by @starstrings01 and the other one is called "The Terminal". Wanted to engage with the folks but I guess, I will wait for a few more days until I feel a little better.

Often times I have seen people talking about earning passive income through crypto. Hive/Leo made my realize that it's possible. In fact, today I came across @onealfa.pob's post where he shared amazing pictures taken by himself during his visit to the Lake & the adjacent park. While he was clicking pictures, his Cubdefi account was minting cubs for him. A few days ago, @jongloson shared his personal story where he got caught up with 'LIFE' but he still made progress and grew his portfolio on autopilot, all thanks to the passive nature of his crypto assets. You can find hundreds of such stories on Hive & Leo Finance.

These experiences inspire me to BUIDL my crypto investments and grow them with time. I want them to be as diverse as possible. So, while I am facing challenges in my real life or focusing on spending time with my family & friends, I don't have to worry about earning money. On Hive & Leo Finance, Financial Independence is possible! The opportunities are endless and by spending a few hours every day for the next 1 or 2 years, you can basically change your life for good by setting a base for the next 5-10 years easily. You can acquire assets that could help you have a sustainable income in the long term. No Banks, No Government will steal or stop you from earning the share you deserve!

Let's BUIDL!
Let's CRYPTO!
Let's HIVE!
Let's LEO!

Sharing +ve energies only. Not the infection. 😁 Once I feel better, I will be back with different kinds of media related to Finance & Crypto. More presentations & marketing material lined up, so stay tuned guys & stay healthy!

Stay safe. I hope you get better soon. The situation in India was fairly bad according to the news I saw but I didn't realize they cut off testing people for the virus.

Thanks a lot for the wishes @jfang003! I am in a much better position than many.

The numbers you are seeing on the news are actually 10x in reality. The government is doing its best to clear its image by hiding data and doing nothing else about it. They don't care about people dying. They care about winning elections.

On Hive & Leo Finance, Financial Independence is possible! The opportunities are endless...

Well said! This is what I try to tell some of my friends here. It takes consistency, quality posting and investing in Hive-based tokens to be stable financially.

I am sorry about the situation in your country. Quite similar to mine. A situation where the government does not care about the people but itself.

How are you and your family holding up? I hope you feel better soon. I'm also glad your little man is doing okay and pray he stays so.

You are a great writer and I enjoy reading your blogs, so don't break the streak. 😁 You can do this. But rest. 🍀

Perfect. All it takes is a year of showing up every day. That's it!

And yes, both the governments (of Nigeria & India) are quite similar. Anti-People, Anti-Crypto, Full of Corruption & Full of Illiterates leading from the front.

How are you and your family holding up?..

We are doing fine so far but I am mentally drained because of sitting in the same room all day, alone thinking about negative things & scared about the health of my family & friends. The only time I feel good is when I am on Hive or reading a book.

You are a great writer...

Hehe, thanks for making my day @kemmyb. 😁 I hope this streak never breaks! Covid cannot stop me.... YET 😋 Hopefully it will go away soon.

Hope you feel better soon. I had Covid a year ago at the beginning of the pandemic and it wiped me out for 4 weeks so sounds like you're doing well. Hope your mum and wife and managing well too.

Thank you so much @gillianpearce for the wishes & for sharing your experience. You are absolutely right, I am not having any major symptoms apart from having a bit of sore throat. Mum & wifey are doing just fine so far, it's a matter of few more days hopefully. If the kid's okay, we all will be okay. ✌️

As a fellow Indian who has been abroad because of the COVID situation while the rest of my family stays in the country, it's been an absolute horror to watch the election rallies unfold and see the COVID cases rise. THe situation of the hospital beds and healthcare is dismal if anything. I got COVID, being away from my family, and thankfully had to do not much but quarantine myself for 10 days. I had a little bit of a fever, on and off, some chills and I lost my sense of taste and smell. It all gets better soon! I know it can be scary - I can't imagine what it's like to be in this situation with a 6 month old but for the most bit, it goes away like the cold :) Keep posting!

Thanks for sharing your story bro. I hope you and your family stay safe from the pandemic. Even we are not facing any major issues apart from having mild symptoms, it's the thought of something bad could happen is scaring us. Because it's like hell out there. I hope this time passes soon and this shit goes away like common cold.

Yes, the effects of COVID on the mind are in a lot of cases more than on the body! Hang in there!
