It's pretty strange

My mandatory quarantine ended on Easter Sunday, a coincidence that is conducive to grandiosity but I am OK. The strangest part of it for me is the discovery that there isn't really a lot of difference between life in quarantine and life at liberty. I am free to do what I want but there isn't anything to do.

Things aren't quite that bleak, I can buy my own groceries and I can go for walks but that is about it. The real glue of community life, activities with friends, is missing and it is a huge loss. The effect of this, as with many other things arising from the Corono crisis, is that it does shine the light on what is important. I really like the people with whom I spend my time but after this I will like them and value them even more. Much, much more.
