The pandemic has changed the way people relate to each other at home, work, school and in general. Some people have been feeling lonely, isolated, disconnected and at the same time, smothered by all the time together at home. A few observations that many of us have learned from the past year is:
- There is a difference between spending large amounts of time together and real quality time.
- Social contact through phone calls, text messages or an online community help alleviate loneliness.
- Modern technology is no substitution for human touch such as holding hands, hugging or massage.
- Conflicts happen and can be resolved with people we love and care about.
- Communication is key to a healthy relationship.
- Social connection is something that we simply can’t live without.
Future Outlook
Social undistancing is the process of re-establishing connections after social distancing for a long period of time. Now that vaccines are slowly being rolled out, businesses are easing back on telecommuting and starting to reimagine business as usual we have to continue:
– Maintaining and strengthening our relationships.
– Building new social connections and support.
– Reconnecting with people inside and outside our household.
– Balancing our own needs with the needs of others.
– Embracing diversity and inclusion.
