The fear of the novel coronavirus pandemic has escalated as the cases have sky-rocketed recently. While most people around the world have taken to be isolated inside their homes, quarantining themselves and maintaining social distance, many other people around the world have taken to spread an aura of kindness during tough times in an attempt to imbibe hope and motivation, besides being helpful and cooperative.
The unsolicited spread of COVID-19 has created a situation, rather dark and tense for everyone. The number of infections and fatalities are continuously climbing, pertaining to situations forcing nations to impose lockdown and travel restrictions. However, people are not stepping behind in giving out hope and expectations. During these times, people have time and again done their bit in helping people, in need and in desolation. Kindness has continued to flourish, no matter what, in times like these, when the world needs the most is hope and love.

Anyone has elderly parents living in Bangalore? I am happy to check in on them and maybe run some errands. I am neat. I shower twice. I wash my hands (OFTEN). And I commute by cycle while wearing a mask. I can drop off supplies they need outside their homes. DM me.
