Wow, deep question.
It's had both positive and negative aspects for me.
I think the extended time indoors has given me a lot of time to think and contemplate life and relationships. It's given me time to think more deeply about what's went wrong in the past and look at what I can change or just accept. I look forward with greater excitement, clarity and purpose in my interactions with others and with my activities. I took up walking an hour each day which has been good exercise, It has also been great for my mental health to get out and move, get fresh air and see the beauty of the sky, birds, plants and neighbors.
On the down side, over the last few months, many friends and family members have gotten ill with the virus. and this was hard to handle when we thought things were getting better.
I also lost someone from the virus less than a month ago. They got sick and were gone in less than a week, it was so unexpected. Leaving behind three children and no parent for them. As they were a single parent doing their best to get by.
It has all left me with a lot to reflect on and to remember my blessings and not take things for granted.
