“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

– Victor Frankl

Corona outbreak is changing everything around us, that makes us realize how vulnerable Humans really are! The Internet is flooded with Negative news & while it may look like everything is falling apart. But, at Yuyiii, we believe, there are a few reasons that will make you smile even though travel might change for all us:

Nature is healing. Earth has finally taken that long-overdue break. Water is cleaner, the air is fresher and the pollution level has dropped all around the world. So be ready to witness a beautiful change when we rise through this.

We are connected more than ever. This Distance is bringing us closer! Skype, Whatsapp, all social media platforms are helping us to reach our loved ones and cherish them.

The world isn’t as bad as we think. Random acts of kindness are raising our spirits! In Delhi, a woman delivered a baby with the help of a policewoman after no sign of ambulance, The Government of Orrisa has sanctioned Rs 54 lakhs to feed stray animals and these are just a few from the long list.

You have all the time in the world. It’s time to do the things you always longed for. To clean your shelf, read that book, binge on movies, or bake an insane amount of cookies because why not?

Come out of this corona outbreak as a better person with a new skill, a vision for yourself, and lots of compassion for the people around you. The future is uncertain but we have this very moment that nobody can steal from us. So why not make the most of it?

Sending some ‘Virtual Hugs’ your way! Stay Home, Stay Safe.

Corona might have got you thinking about everything going wrong for you in life. However, not losing a balanced perspective is important to lead a considerably harmonious life post this crisis. Right now, as the stoics always say is the time to make the obstacle your way. And live in the present moment instead of thinking about the future.

Quintessentially, now is the time for us during Corona in India to surrender to the destinies and let life lead us. To pray for the common good of humanity. But most importantly, bask in the small joys of life with nothing but deeply felt gratitude.

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” — Victor Frankl

Now more than ever, we should mindfully cherish these precious moments of our daily lives:

We do not need expensive clothes, parties every week, cleaning our laundry, vessels, relishing pure homemade food makes us realize how little we actually need!

During these tough times, we realize how genuine the love of our parents, partners, kids, and pets is! You might have forgotten that in the hustle and this lockdown has given you the luxury of reliving it all!

Your help, support staff have always been there for you. So, in these challenging times, pay it forward. Supported them. Cherish and understand how connected we all are! Because love is the only universal language that we all speak!

By cherishing these simple experiences, at Yuyiii, we request that let us all try our best to look at our privileges and live in the hope of crossing over these times of Corona in India with harmony.
