I'm talking March and April 2020. Like everything was just calmer somehow. Life became simple.

-with everything shut down, people found recreation in the simple things like going on a walk, playing board games etc.
-Streets were empty
-Air felt cleaner cause there is less pollution on the roads
-People really cared about one another and collectively stayed home for the greater good
-you were grateful for your family and friends being healthy and safe
-If you live with roommates/family, you were forced to become closer with them

It just seemed like a capsule of life that we will never get back again unless there is another global pandemic (which God forbid doesn't happen)

While it’s true some people did experience these things or alll. A lot of it is formed in retrospect based off people around you and your own experiences

For instance, if you’re a college kid escaping an abusive home, and the pandemic caused you to be sent home from school early / stay home longer

Then the lockdowns definitely wouldn’t have helped that situation

Better to just say what you enjoyed about lockdown rather than make blanket statements that aren’t true
