I am tired. You are tired. We are tired. And not only tired of winter, but above all of corona. Whoever you talk to, the conversations repeat themselves. That is hardly surprising, after all, our everyday life does too. We get up. Have breakfast. Work. Go shopping. Cook. Watch series. Walking from the sofa to bed. At the weekend, this process is extended to include a walk through the area, where we can avoid tripping hazards on sidewalks while we sleep.
For a year now, the lives of people around the world have been dominated by this nasty little virus whose name we had never heard of before. Germany is in the second lockdown, the challenges of the first have become boring, we baked banana bread and did yoga, that's enough. Nevertheless, we know that we have to hold on. Because on the one hand, this pulling together should not have been in vain. On the other hand, human lives are at stake here and for that we will probably be able to stay at home for a while.
Just imagine, tomorrow the corona pandemic would be over …
That's why we have to go through there now – and hold on to the light at the end of the tunnel. And because this is clearly visible in the course of the corona vaccinations that are starting, we allow ourselves to dream a little again … Now that it is no longer so unrealistic that we will hug again one day, even together celebrate and be allowed to travel, we immerse ourselves fully in this idea and ask ourselves: what would we do if we no longer had a pandemic from tomorrow?
Sure, the time of transition back to the pre-Corona world will happen more slowly than suddenly, and maybe there won't be an old normal, but rather a completely new normal. But still: How do we imagine this day when we can do everything again for the first time – without the fear of the coronavirus in the back of our minds?
We got lost in daydreams in the home office. You can see the result here. Just click through the gallery – which idea gives you the most courage? And when you have reached the very end – let's try to hold on to this feeling of happiness. We will hardly give up shortly before the marathon goal? All take a deep breath and off to the sofa!
