Corona did not prevent us from living in normality. We have not lived normal lives for centuries. The way we live in materialism, it is pure survival. Everything, really everything we do – the whole of society and its institutions – is born out of fear of death. We have been fighting for centuries at all levels and our world is nothing but fortresses at all levels.
Corona is simply asking us to build a new fortress. When this fortress is in place and we can walk beautifully in the dark shadows of its walls – even paler than we were before – we will again find something to distract us from our fear of death. The new abnormality then replaces the old abnormality and becomes defined as the new normality.
So we build fortress ring after fortress ring…. And tell ourselves that this is life….
