Hype stronger than the storm
Two days ago there was a warning of a Super Storm in Delhi. Newspaper and TV channels kept broadcasting the official warning by the Met department. People were talking with fear and anxiety all over the city. Arrangements were made to be safe.
Everyone waited with bated breath for the storm. People scanned the news paper, got hooked to their TV sets and Social media updates. The time the storm was supposed to hit was between three and seven pm. Most schools were shut. Parents feared sending children to school, people stayed indoors and so on. But nothing happened. The Super storm was more of a hype. There was just a shower. The hype was so much that it was stronger than the storm that never came.
Fear in us is stronger than faith. We give in to the hype and fear takes over. Our life is more valuable than our fears. Reduce the fear and spend more time doing things that are worth your time.
