It is now time to revive the charm of interactive human conversation, albeit in the confines of our homes for now. Where the living rooms livened up with gossip from our interaction with the world beyond the boundaries of homes, they are now victims of internet connections. People living in the same house shut themselves behind closed doors permitting the nemesis to take hold of our consciousness and to be sucked into mindless scrolling and browsing. As the old maxim goes, too much of anything is bad. It still holds. Using it to our advantage may propel us to lead a more fulfilling life beyond the trappings of excessive screen time. For all its ills, the world beyond the internet is unmistakably inefficient and unreal.
If the Covid-19 pandemic has changed the meaning of work, it has certainly changed the  meaning of leisure as well. As countries worldwide shut down offices, markets and factories and imposed travel restrictions, how we work and take time off from work changed drastically. For millions of people, the pandemic meant no work, no pay, and no leisure. As physical distancing became the norm, people's incomes depleted, and travel restrictions kept people at home for long durations, the tourism sector became the biggest casualty of the pandemic.
