A New Normal

Adrien J.

It hit me and it hit me hard. The thought my was comfortable and happy life was nothing more than a dream now. If you were to tell me a year ago that 2020 marked the year of a pandemic I would not listen to you. Unfortunately we are here now and there is nothing we can do. A lot of people including the past are longing to go back to there old life. It’s true this pandemic has been far from pleasant but honestly tell me what

could have been done. It was a freak of nature and hat happens to us. Yeah it unfair that it happens to us but we can’t do anything about it. The way I see it is that you can complain about your past life or you can start setting up for your future life. It crazy to think that now we all have to wear mask and social distance. For us social beings it’s hard to do that, believe me it is. When I go to the store the first thing I notice is how we all are hiding our faces under mask. All of us concerned with contracting the virus from a stranger. Well just a few months ago I could bump into someone and they would not care. Now we must be careful. As I think of all of this, I can’t help but to be fearful of what that future of the human race holds. It is so frightening that it keeps me awake at night sometime. There is one thing that gives me comfort. Despite all the pain and regret this pandemic has brought we have met this challenge with a change. My final thought is this: sleep well tonight knowing that no matter what happens we will adapt to a new normal.
