Comment on I'm tired
WelcomeToDheghom@lemmy.ml 22 hours agoI’ll be honest, for some of us “essential” workers it was hell. We didn’t get that time, we didn’t get bonus compensation, we didn’t get space. I lost multiple family members during those events and didn’t even get to say goodbye to them. I say this out of genuine but not negative jealousy. Be thankful for that time you had. The way people describe it to me makes me want to agree with you about the world should take turns shutting down now and then to give people time and space to connect.

The thing I miss most is the clean air when walking home from work.

Absolutely! The planes not cluttering the skies was another one I didn’t expect to appreciate at the time. A decade or so ago I was in Ohio when the US had like the entire eastern seaboard power grid drop for an evening. The night sky that night was something else, even through the clouds at the time. Makes me wish someday that I’ll be able to go to one of the darker places on earth to really see the night sky in all its glory before I die.
