Today is the 6th day of very cold temps here in a row
The dark times not only have a light at the end of the tunnel with vaccine herd immunity in a few months, but a light within the tunnel, namely:
- people more in touch with family
- carbon emissions reduced worldwide
- essential workers appreciated
- more sleep (apparently 17 more minutes a day on average)
- more people able to work from home
- good hygiene back in fashion
- decade of advances in vaccines and other medicine
- board games making a comeback
- parents discovering whether homeschooling was workable
- people losing weight and becoming fitter and healthier
- everyone pausing to reconsider what they took for granted
But most importantly the pandemic was the perfect opportunity to:
- practise and prepare for a much much worse pandemic.
