Corona pandemic: Peacemaker

[svenrus]

Those who now are at war hopefully will wake up and lay aside the battleaxe due to this common threat, Corona pandemie.

As dangerous it is, as good it is that the whole world could see each other in a more love-caring light.

Yin-Yang

Ping-Pong

Those who now are at war hopefully will wake up

Well, that is a nice idea, but it is not where I'd be placing my bets: China and US are growing more hostile towards each other every day; Iran continues to wage a proxy war inside Iraq, and now against its own citizens, and who knows what sort of harm Putin is going to think up to take advantage of the situation. Oh, and now Trump gets the opportunity to hand out money to voters to try and buy the election here in the US.

My posting are quete naive I admit. And I don't hope this Corona thing will kill all of them no matter how cruel they (we) treat each other. Hope is a green thing. Green do not allways match with Blue. I choose the Green jeton

Green do not allways match with Blue.

I have no clue what this means. (And I think blue-green, and celadon are awesome colors!)

But besides that, I generally try to hope for the best outcome for myself and others - although admittedly, right now I have a few notable exceptions to this sentiment! But I realistically know that is not a universally held idea.

Couldn't express it better. My play with colours were off course another way to say that nobody knows.
Sometimes a catastrophe like this Corona virus can wake up people, thereby said that mostly we walk in sleep, routines and keeping things done can take away the attention from this moment called now. Even people fighting can hopefully see that their fight is a bagatel/minor agenda against this pandemia. But again, that's the great maybe.

Well Svenrus, one does wonder what kind of disaster it might take before people would realize we all live on the same planet and are all in this together.
But judging by the relentless partisan sniping that has continued unabated, it will take worse than this pandemic unfortunately. It does kind of show people's true colors though.
