Was It All An Illusion?

What if our life before the pandemic was an illusion? What if life as it "is", the real life, is what we are living now? What if the pandemic just pulled the curtain back and exposed the reality that the life we knew was just smoke and mirrors? Let me give you an example: toilet paper. Now I understood how all the stores ran out of toilet paper as people panicked and hoarded toilet paper (and a host of other things). But why is there still no toilet paper at the stores two months after? Is the supply chain broken, or was it never working right? I just do not understand how the richest nation in the world can run out of toilet paper? Maybe what we thought was abundance was just an illusion? Maybe it was all a trick? If that is the case, Lord have mercy on us all. If we can't provide enough toilet paper to meet demand, what else are we going to run out of? What else will we have to do without?

What do you think?
