I now realise that I personally was at war from around 2010 (when I "awoke") but was unaware of the length and pervasive nature of the conflict. Even now I do not properly understand the scale and scope of what we are involved in. So if it was "7 years to get in" (to 2017) it's maybe "7 years to get out" (to 2024)? I am finding the time is passing quite quickly…
Time has been SO strange lately. Almost as if it doesn't exist.
Some months fly by so fast it is hard to wrap your head around it. Then there are days/weeks that seem to be in slow motion.
The fact that 2 years has past since all the rona madness began, blows my mind almost daily.
