I agree with so much of this. While I don’t have as many hobbies as you, or as much of a social life (any social life at all!), I am someone who likes to be on the go all the time and, like you, I wake up with a jobs list in my head every single day. Now I know that the best thing I can do for my family and society in general is as little as possible! It’s quite liberating to spend more time reading and I’m even waking up slightly later.
I do hope that when life goes back to ‘normal’, people do take some of the positives from this time and stick with them.

In reply to Plutonium Sox. Me too Nat. I'm actually enjoying this opportunity to sit back and reflect a bit. We live such a fast-paced life that this time has been a true gift. I don't want to take it for granted because I'm certain we will never get the chance again. xx

I feel the same, I was thinking about it the other night when I was out for a run. There are things I miss a lot like swimming in the river with my friend, but our lives had got so busy that it’s nice to take a step back from it all and rest and chill out a bit. I hope we’ll be able to do just a little bit less when things are back to ‘normal’.
