Covid Psychology 1: What is happening...?

Lots of people are sick. Lots of people are dying. Jobs are at risk. Uncertainty and anxiety everywhere. Lockdown. We have not been this way before. It is mind blowing.
What else is happening?
Some are calling it The Great Pause. Some are slowing down. Some have stopped. That can be good. We are forced to stop and think; to breath; we are thinking about what is important; what we can do without; we are re-evaluating relationships; we are thinking of others; we want to help; we are trying to keep in touch with family; we are thinking about our world; the air is cleaner; we appreciate our health (and the NHS); there is spiritual awakening; churches are growing online; we are praying; we have discovered we can live without football!
We are changed. A re-set button has been pressed. We will probably do things differently from now on...
