Making Friends From Behind Closed Doors
What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?
Text story that I wrote myself
Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.
The pandemic has been hard for all of us. Not all of us experience it the same exact way, but we all deal with similar themes such as: loneliness. I'm not the only person who had this experience, but maybe those who haven't tried this yet may take to the idea and have good results themselves. This story is important to me as it represents how humans adapt quickly and readily to the world around them in most cases. It also shows how being a social creature really allows us to ground ourselves to the world, to empathize and understand that which surrounds us: whether it be person or animal. This story really puts in perspective the idea that we may all be home, social distancing, but we are never truly cut off from the world, and people, around us.
Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
