One thing for sure is that people quickly return to their comfort zones. No matter what, we love our routines. Many of us have not been through an event with such global effect. We have experienced civil liberty restrictions unmatched this century.
But, we coped. We walked more if we could. Our couches got crumpled. Netflix got boring. We cooked. We survived.
However, many businesses took a hit. The losses are spreading out. We are still riding a wave of uncertainty to some degree. Sadly, many jobs have gone. Some will never return. The new day is a dark day for many. But one thing is for sure - we need to keep going.
Fear of Covid-19 has changed everything. No matter what our personal perspective is, our base level of human interaction has shifted. Over time the fear that hinders many will wane. Moving forward we will do a few things differently that will become the new familiar. Soon, it will all be routine again.
Let’s make our new familiar great. Generally people care. Fundamentally most of us are willing to give anyone a hand. Now, more than ever, we need to look around and see what we can do and make a conscious effort to look after the welfare of others. Chin up. Make smiles contagious.
