Sometimes I think we didn't realize how peaceful and normal life felt between 2000 and 2019.No one really prepared us for how strange the 2020s would feel. People feel more distant, conversations feel shorter, music hits differently (and not always in a good way), even food doesn't feel as joyful as it used to. Time moves fast but also somehow feels stuck, and social media? Constantly overwhelming. It's like the world shifted quietly and we're all still trying to adjust. Life doesn't feel the same anymore. And deep down, a lot of us feel it won't ever go back to what it was. We're just learning how to live with a new kind of normal.
