An historian on Twitter suggested people should keep journals of how COVID-19 affects their everyday lives.
I've been doing it as a method of self-reflection, and found it really valuable. I end up not just enumerating the changes to my life, but exploring how I am responding to them, trying to describe how they're affecting me emotionally, etc.
It's just for me, so I don't worry about missing days or being dramatic, or writing in an organized manner. But it's been really interesting, and not at all the chore I expected.
- yingw787 7y agoI'm doing something similar too! Morning / afternoon / evening pages on my personal blog: https://blog.yingw787.com https://blog.yingw787.com I don't think I've ever shared my personal blog before, it's my personal scratchpad as opposed to my professional content on Bytes by Ying, but if it helps people understand how one rando on the Internet processes emotions during this time, maybe I can do some good.
