The Future Is Now
With all the exciting news from the last 12 months, it’s easy to forget that 2020 wasn’t such a good year for everyone. Several celebrities suffered serious setbacks, including Madame Tussauds, which had to close down its London location. As a matter of fact, many of the locations that we take for granted today didn’t exist back then. During the pandemic, everything changed, as social distancing became the norm, and more people than ever were left home, isolating themselves. The world is a very different place now, and it’ll be interesting to see how society develops post-pandemic.
That being said, we have to look forward, not back, and while we wait for the world to return to something more like normal, we can enjoy the luxury of celebrity and engage with our favourite A-listers via movie chat-rooms and livestreams. In many ways, 2020 has been an opportunity for change, and while we’re glad that Rob has been able to take advantage of it, now is the time to move forward, not back. It’s time to seize the day and be responsible for our own happiness. We’re finally able to do that because of what’s happened over the last year, and it’s a responsibility that we shouldn’t take for granted.
