OK, so let’s be honest: Coronavirus and quarantine have been nothing but an absolute prison. This has actually caused the depression rate around the world to go up significantly, and I understand why.

My experience with this horrible pandemic started out fine, but it’s really starting to get to me. Right now it’s summer, and I can hang out with my friends and go get ice cream, but I know that this is probably going to last a lot longer.

I hate this virus, I really do, but it is making the world come closer together. If only this pandemic wasn’t a pandemic, and it wasn’t taking lives, then that would be awesome, right? Well, that’s never going to happen.

Sometimes I really think that this is all a test from the universe just checking in on the world’s unity every hundred years, but let’s face it: Every time it comes back, it gets worse, kinda like a sign from the universe saying, “Hey, your unity sucks worse than the wildfires I made in Australia.”

So really my message is that our world is really struggling to have good unity, and once we achieve what seems to be the impossible (world peace), all of this will stop.
