We’ve all been impacted over the last few months. Some routines and habits dropped and others formed.
Most changes were imposed upon us by the shutdown and we adapted. Cardboard delivery boxes appeared at our doorstep in never-imagined numbers. Zoom replaced conference rooms, and on and on.
But will these changes last?
I often wonder what the new normal will be. A new normal for our society and, perhaps more significantly, a new normal for me. The meditation, the walks, the more-regular “just keeping in touch” phone calls and FaceTime with family we can’t visit.
As we move on, I hope to sort out the adaptations that should be retained.
