This is probably the most common question that you can have with anyone in the world , this question has been from a regular answer just to start a casual small talk to be something really complex to answer.

Why is it hard to answer… COVID-19 , social anxiety , being the whole time between walls… This kind of situation convert the answer into something really hard to answer if you want to be honest and tell what you feel or just answer with a lie.

Society has been built to interact each other from our early times as child we start our interaction in kindergarten or school , we start playing with other little humans in our early ages but it is still an interaction and this kind of routine gives us some sense of this is normal.

In our adult life we interact at the university or work , we can interact on small groups or huge groups but at the end our diversity on interaction is always in there.

This is really important to keep in mind because our whole society has been built in interaction and this makes our mental healthy works the whole time in an almost good way ( I can add more info on the almost… but it will be a whole new post ), this situation will bring a new whole world after the pandemic ends ( if it even ends ).

We are close to a brand new world with a society that can be broken in their mind and the chances of new world life style will be there… what can be different? , we can have a possibility of a less expressive humans interacting each other or the other side of the balance , with people being more expressive and less restrictive on their interactions. This can two potential scenarios and there is also the fact that people can be broken and look for not so legal or right actions in order to remove their stress.

Why am I pointing that option? I’m reading several news on people blowing up cars or people ending their lives by their own or in other scenarios … crashing their cars without even thinking about the consequences…

A brand new world is coming and 2021 will be the door to show us that , keep strong and healthy ( not just physically ).
