Only child

article image placeholderUploaded by @brightonasher
I'm an only child. So this whole 2020 lockdown isolation thing hasn't been super weird for me. I kind of feel like in a way, I've been training for this my whole life, but honestly, I'm a little worried for myself myself because I've gotten so comfortable with this. I don't know that I will be able to adequately reintroduce into society. And I know that that's a really hard thing for a lot of people to be by themselves and love your own company

That doesn't seem like the worst reality. So I'm confused by everyone who is dying to get back out in the world because honestly, I've been having a great time in isolation, but also to like, obviously, this past year has been terrible. But I just wanted to say deeply, I related to you

I grew up an only child also, so I agree that we were uniquely positioned to actually do okay during this pandemic. I always grew up having a lot of cousins to play with, but basically it was it's just me and my mom in the house, and yeah, I learned to keep myself occupied. I never had a problem being alone. I never had a problem shopping alone or eating alone like some people do. I'm very self sufficient, so I totally get it

Funny we couldn't stand our own company because the pandemic has exposed us

We need to see if change is real for real, or is it just temporary? One thing is for sure that each one of us has got to know who we are. And it was not just a realization they knew themselves so long ago. And the Pandemic has only validated the thought that and raised any doubts if they had in their mind of any size that they could become or be a different person if given the opportunity to work from home or from a remote location
