It is sometimes hard to see the good when all the bad is dominating the conversation. I agree with what you have written. I think a lot of people are re-examining the way they live and are starting to see that maybe things don't have to be the way they are presently. I know for my part I don't yearn to get back to normal. I am hoping that there is some meaningful/positive change to the way we live that can come out of all the misery that has been brought upon us during this pandemic.

Whatever happens, going back to normal is no longer on the table for the entire world. Things have evolve and we just gotta live with it and continue evolving.
The "normal" changes every generation. People don't like that change occurred while they were noticing.
I agree. People do not like disruptive changes, but ill easily imbibe the subtle ones.
I definitely want to see lockdowns end. But at the same time, I don't want things back as they were. We should use this as an opportunity to realize that people can work and learn from home. Perhaps it could even allow people to"attend" ivy league colleges who might not be able to due to location, finances, etc.
Totally agree the pandemic needs to end but the lessons learned from it need to be retained and expanded upon. People need to realize they have more power to control their situations then they are led to believe. They may need to make sacrifices in certain areas but in my opinion there are better and happier ways to live than what we have been doing.
True! We need to make sure that there are plenty of options too. Hive is a huge help in this area :) !

I do not think the virus will go away entirely, to be honest. We just need to learn to live with it just like HIV. We should rather focus on evolving new methods of doing things rather than trying to go back to 'normal'.
We didn't go into lockdown because of Ebola, and it's infinitely worse. Many people can't take it long term emotionally, so many people have killed themselves over this :( Gas masks maybe?

Maybe because Ebola is not as infectious as COVID. It's read a sad one watching the world meltdown.
