Pandemic life

I don't mean this to sound exaggerated or cavalier...but the coronavirus has literally changed almost every living creature on the planet! Oh ok, maybe not bugs...or birds...
Think about that for a minute. The impact is just so hard to wrap your head around. Dairy farmers dumping milk. Pig farmers killing piglets. Potato farmers giving them away. Oil companies running out of places to store it. The push for socialism, again. Finger pointing. Misinformation. Celebrities suffering attention withdrawals. And the attention athletes are getting is more like, why do you make so much? Greed, whoa, what's happening to greed? What IS happening to greed???? Oh this is gonna be so interesting!

I believe a year from now, we'll mostly be back to normal. Humans by nature are narcissistic. Americans are consumer driver. And things that I think will change, will take awhile. Mostly, I think big businesses and corporations will start to wonder why they are spending millions of dollars on leasing office space when so much of their work can be done from home. And ultimately, what a boon for the environment too! Less gas, less pollution, less car accidents, lower insurance rates, more family time, the list is almost endless. I'm so curios to see what the world will look like in another 5 years.
