Cut off electricity in times of varying and affect the daily life which we live, although this time is what makes me feel reassured and psychological comfort it is an opportunity to relax from the bustle of life

Here in our country there's black out in some parts due to this storm. Here in metro city, randomly we experienced 4-6 hours of black out since Sunday due to the storm. Today our area experienced black out from 3-8pm and I am glad it's back that soon.

I was just reading about the electrical power crises in India. It reveals a major problem in mankind's way of life. As you rightly state, we are too dependent on electricity provided through single systems. Some years back, where I live, we had a major ice storm that knocked out our electricity in January, the coldest month of the year where temperatures are way below freezing. I had to survive about a week without any heat or lights. I survived but it was horrible. I had to sleep with a coat and ski pants. There has to be a better way and there is but greed stands in the way!
