In the midst of the pandemic, people constantly and casually talk about “going back to normal”. A couple of notes on the matter: unless scientists are working on a time machine instead of a vaccine, there is no going back. And taking a deeper dive, what exactly do they mean by “normal”? The only thing that is considered normal about life is change.
Sometimes change is overwhelming, misleading, harsh, painful, but it’ll always be inevitable. So there, don’t cling to a single reality.
