Why does life after COVID sometimes feel strangely different, even though everything looks normal again?

Question

Sometimes I think about life before 2020 and realize just how different things feel now.

On the outside, everything looks normal again. We work, travel, go out, make plans, meet people, and carry on like nothing happened. 🌎

But deep down… does anyone else feel like something changed?

Maybe it’s how quickly time seems to pass now. Maybe it’s how much more we appreciate our health, family, and simple moments. Maybe it’s the friendships that quietly faded, the people who became more comfortable staying home, or the way we started looking at life a little differently. 🥺

And honestly, 2020 feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago at the same time.

Sometimes I wonder if the world actually changed after COVID… or if we changed, and the world just kept moving. 💭

Do you feel like life truly went back to normal, or do you think a part of us is still living in the “before 2020” world? 👀❤️

I think it really depends on what side that you were looking at covid at

3 years before covid my boss and I were walking down the sidewalk just leaving a property I was working on one of her houses and some old guy passed away in there and I was talking about him what I felt was going on in the house

And then all the sudden something came to me I said how do you fake a pamademic and she said what I said you have a good memory or when you get back to the office do me a favor write down on a piece of paper fake pandemic and stick it underneath the desk protector or whatever it is that you're right on you know I said stick it underneath there and let's just see the two and a half three years later we have covid

We are energy beings On the same day that covid came about Is when China turned on 5g

That frequency disrupted every single one of us it was something that had never been tried before but anyway when it got here to America it locked me on the ground I was dizzy I couldn't move but anyway

I'm listening to all news programs and everything is contradicting itself

And then all the sudden all the hospitals were packed full they say I said b******* I went down to our Hospital I walked into through the emergency doors and it was quiet as a mouse nothing month after month after month the news was saying that it was packed month after month after month emergency room was quiet

People are dying left and right In my state in my city I would read the newspaper and they would have 31 different types of death people shooting each other car accident pregnancy went bad somebody tripped and fell a common cold not one person died of these deaths none of that even happened because everybody died of covid I said what happened to the other people and then I had friends go into the hospital for a hip surgery everything's fine after the family leaves because visiting time is over and next thing you know 20 minutes later the person dies how does that happen and then they say he died of covid no every death certificate said covered covered covid because somebody was getting paid

All of our federal officials they did not wear masks why

When somebody beats you up enough times and lies to you enough times it changes everything especially when they are supposed to represent you and watch out for your health and everything else

But after a while you get numb because you can't believe anything they say and they end up taking from you and taking people's lives it changes everything

My son is a fireman paramedic He called me and said Dad They want me to take a shot If I don't take it they're going to fire me I told him I don't know what to do I'm not taking it Because it's b******* it's fake it's wrong it's some sort of Ponzi scheme where people are making money like crazy different countries are not saying the same things that our country is saying some of them aren't even playing the game of covid

I told him I wouldn't do it I wouldn't take a shot he said he didn't want to be fired he was pissed because he had to take that shot and I don't blame him I think he should have sued

It's just like Bill Gates taken his serum to Africa giving it to 400 black women and a year later half a year later they're all sterile it's just like Bill Gates creating a mosquito that is going to inject something to us all when they sting us this world is crazy the elite all have to go sorry I'm not that type of person but I have to become that that person because if you have grandchildren I believe in them if you have children I believe in them and I want them to all have a good life and when this stuff is happening it changes you

The death of a paradigm, I guess.

3D is closing down. 5D beckons. We can no longer draw our strength from the old routines and patterns. The more we try, and more pain it yields.

Covid was a lifting of the veil event. We actually saw, in plain daylight, the sheer nastiness and the moral bankruptcy of the prevailing systems and structures. Our science was exposed as more of a religion or scientism. Hence the picture on my profile.

Every little facet of that event was a lie. In real terms, it was nothing more than a bad flu season. Yet they shut down the world, locked us in cages like rats, intentionally pumped fear into us, wasted 2 years+ of our lives, coerced us to get some Satan spunk injected into us, completely tanked and bankrupted all of the economies. It was a fucking disaster of human stupidity on a monumental scale.

Really? I haven't noticed. I've completely forgotten about COVID. The only difference is, I think people have become more assholish and aggressive and it's normalized wearing masks. Like the person who shot up Teotihuacan was wearing a mask, and I saw a YouTube prank where a guy in a mask went to a store to return a stolen play station. Pre-Covid days, a mask wearing was associated with crime, but now it's associated with germophobia.
Only thing is, there are some businesses that shut down and never recopened.

World Ended in COVID, we are Just Living in a Cronicly painful, Slow Crumbling Apocalyptic Hell Right now!

Zack-Bann · Answer

I think we experienced COVID at turning point in our lives already.
You would have been 20, I was 22.
The transition from teenage to adult got interrupted.
So one day we went to bed as teenagers and woke up in our mid 20s already supposed to live an adult life.

Notice that the COVID generation is getting married marginally later than the previous ones
Many of us are still making up for that lost time.
Knowing full well we can’t get the years themselves back.

I don't think that we ever returned to life as it was before COVID days.

You mentioned time going faster. I just asked a question about that last week and almost every one said it's going by fast now.

I don't think that the kids who had to miss going to school will ever learn the things they would have learned in school if COVID didn't happen.

I really tried to ignore the fallout from covid but yes, the world has changed. People are working these phony "work from home "jobs and nobody seems to care that things are not getting done like they used to. The public schools have gotten worse which is hard to believe and nobody seems to notice.

Some people out there are talking about how after Covid that there are less colours in the world, the sky is less blue, food is almost tasteless, there seems to be less wildlife such as birds, butterfly's, bees, ladybugs, fish in the rivers etc.

OneViewpoint · Answer

It's not strange for me. I've moved on. Things are back to normal. With a possible exception for the whole "work from home" thing.

Taranis_Thunor · Answer

I think it's 'cause the lockdown ruined slowed down many people's lives, stagnated the economy and completely destroyed people's trust in government 😪

Normal? No. I lost a fiancé and buried my Parents, Grand Dad, and someone I had just barely started seeing. Definitely no.
