Lockdown change

3:30am getting ready to leave for Orange County. Lockdown restrictions are easing. Mask mandates are going away. Social distancing is not necessary. Things are going back to “normal.” news articles about the struggle to re adapt have shown up. I changed over the last year. I was in the field for work. I couldn’t stand being in an office. Now I like being in an office. I used to crave being alone. Now I despise it. I loved being home. Now being home is punishment. I came out of lockdown a different person. The biggest change is my work attitude. I used to see problems as things to eradicate. I needed to solve issues and find peace. I no longer believe that. problems are the job. Dealing with them. Mitigating them. Completing the mission. I am the captain of the ship. I am on a mission. Problems/issues arise. I deal with them. I navigate the course. I accomplish my objective. Life is easier embracing challenge.
