People kept their distance in the streets which made me feel so much safer, and I knew friends wouldn't attempt any weird awkward hugging, so it was far easier to be with them, & being in the 21stC we can keep in touch electronically anyway! I know it's not like that for everyone, as all I hear about in the News is opposite to how I feel, but personally I'm dreading going back to "normal"; rushing around to pay for pointless consumerism, crowds, noise, one size fits all 'socialising'; I was hoping for a new version of normal, awakening of spirituality, slowing to think & focus on what's really important in this earthly plane - maybe that will still happen? :)The Radium Grrlzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10061505837258464367noreply@blogger.com
