I think that this lockdown has done more good than bad to not only me, but a lot of people I know. It has given us a chance to take a small break, stop and think. It has made people appreciate the smaller things in life such as taking a walk and breathing in the summer air. It has also made people appreciate things which they would normally despise, such as school! Lockdown has also helped people to become a bit more educated with what is going on in the world, as we have a
lot more free time. With everything going on with the Black Lives Matter movement, I think that it is partially because of quarantine that we have been working so hard for racial equality. We now have lots of free time to take part in protests and signing petitions. I think lockdown has most definitely changed lots of people for the better, as we have become more aware of the world, how to take care of it and how to take care of each other!
