Critical Consciousness

The pandemic that has changed many sides of humans in this technological era seems to have made a community activity run on awareness of one pattern. Where the more underlying it becomes a pattern is existence in communicating today.

When it comes to the problem of distance in communication, this is not an unnatural pattern. Because of the existence of distance that does require us to communicate in a virtual pattern. However, since the existence of a pandemic, the virtual pattern has become a necessity on the basis of the existence of a pandemic.

The health protocols issued by the government and health parties during the pandemic until the issue of when it will end have yet to get an endpoint when this pandemic period will end. Haven't reached the final point yet. One that continues to be present is resolved, then the other side is affected again. And so on. From the beginning of the pandemic problem until now, it is not felt that finally, the existence of the era and technological progress has become a point of habit that is usually carried out by the world community until now.

Critical awareness of the problems created by the presence of the pandemic is not realized by all parties. Where problems such as the restraint of all reasonable activities that could be done before the pandemic now feel so missed and it is everyone's dream to be able to feel like that time again.

What has been done during the pandemic has now become a bit of a habit by the world community which was previously possible only for a few people. Most levels of activity from the problem of work, school, gathering, relaxing, or looking for calm in boredom can be done reflexively without thinking about what will happen later. However, everything has changed, health is the main priority in carrying out activities and there are legal problems that must be faced if you commit a violation just because you want to do activities that have become purely a habit of the world community in general.

The most basic fear is an expression of the existence of one pattern that creates a comfort zone for each individual in the end. Because people feel comfortable with this existence, it will be difficult later to leave when the pandemic period has actually ended. Not blaming technology problems, but technology has now become a boomerang for humans to be able to think logically and productively.

Creativity is a very clear expression that is hard to control and comes at the time we need it. Because it comes and comes suddenly often. With an unfettered existence, of course, it is more difficult to generate the word creativity. It's not impossible, it's a little difficult. In contrast to freedom, which is certainly more able to create or create creativity that can be present.

The pandemic has made the world community limited by the words space and motion. Spending more time at home and immersed in a virtual world that slowly erodes human existence from rational and social nature. Creating a forgetfulness of habitual patterns of actions that we used to go through in life before the pandemic came.

In the end, there is only an explanatory paragraph to represent in closing that we do not and do not yet know when the pandemic will end. And when will the new era or the time when we can socialize without space restrictions can return. Just a hope of critical awareness of the existence that is being lived does not become a journey of a pandemic period. Not sustainable and ready to be prepared for problems of reason, knowledge, wisdom, and instincts remain in their true existence. Do not continue to sink into the word one pattern because of the existence of a comfort zone that you are used to getting.
