Whitening bones and ashes, forgotten memories, dreams and wishes dull.
So what are we going to do with the time we have here? Sit in front of the computer according to a terrifying new number of more or less self-proclaimed experts. Like poisonous mushrooms growing in the murky soil of the pandemic, these people from all media tell us that the future is online. Working and doing everything from home will be the new tune, even after the crown.
So let’s try to remember that people who lived most of their lives in front of the computer not so long ago were considered difficult loners who needed help.
Are we all going to end up there now? And what happened to perspective, our ability to look ahead, and the historical context? Of course we will travel again, we will meet, we will have regular meetings, parties at home and Christmas parties at work. If not, we are all losers and losers. Life has no meaning if we do not fill it with meaningful things and humans are herd animals, it is in encounters with others that we burn, we grow, we live. So there are lone wolves who enjoy perhaps the worst effect of the pandemic, isolation, right? But don’t make them normative. On the contrary, social distance can have serious effects.
Spring awaits just around the corner and with that restlessness, the desire to be seen, to let one become two. More and more of my friends who are single, divorced, young, old, everyone, are feeling more and more desperate. How can you meet someone these days? The network and the peaks will be the answer given. Thanks but no thanks.
Everyone does what they please and congratulations to everyone who makes it work. But it says a lot, and nothing good, about our time that we can’t even grasp in reality anymore. Yes, but it is so good, they have the same interests and qualities and can get to know each other first! Correct? Or you go on a date with the person you chatted with for a week and it takes you half a second to realize that this man I would never dream of going to bed with. Is it so crucial then? Yes. If people just want company, they can get a dog.
We have chosen to leave the reasoned marriage of the old days and old-fashioned cultures, but we pursue relationships as if hobbies are something that ignites. And on the other side of online dating, of course, there are those who use it like old-fashioned ads in porn magazines. I repeat, where and can be blessed in its form. But the inability and unwillingness to meet someone in a bar or at work is now emphasized as the natural is characteristic of an age in which we increasingly live in and through our social media, in fact antisocial.
Have all workplaces fully open as soon as possible. I can hardly believe that I have fallen in love with a man outside of work all these years.
Exciting photographers with sensitive eyes and even more sensitive hands and that seductive walker spirit that makes them climb fences and take the photo that no one else got. Who saw me in his focus.
All the late-night conversations with fellow journalists, all the crazy decisions, all the star-studded nights you didn’t know how to end.
Trade it for the computer or the mobile phone, to control the appointments instead of just letting yourself go with the flow and waiting for an unexpected new meeting when you both know, for a moment, that you love each other, never.
Behind the scenes, we slowly die. So let’s live in reality and live fully.
