"how damaging extreme hyper-individualistic actions can be for others." I think we're only just beginning to understand the damage COVID did. It will be interesting to look at crime statistics in a few years.

I wish for you the relationship you truly deserve.

I love this kind of reflection on lockdown times. I worked in a hospital in melbourne, lockdown capital of the world, and my experience has been very different to that of most others. I had to go to work sitting alone in a bus, I had to go out everyday, I had to do all the right things, I had to work with people, I had to pretend through the whole thing. No movie binging, no sourdough, no wfh in an oodie, no going outside only for bare necessities. Time at home for me was precious and welcome every weekend.

This is such a powerful piece and interesting perspective. I love your writing style.

Loneliness is a proven killer. I’m so glad they made that style lockdown illegal in Spain.
