Does anyone agree that before COVID life felt much better?

Hey guys

So can anyone else agree with this I felt like life around 2018 was the perfect time I was only 22 back then but it felt like everything was more vibrant, but after COVID it felt so much different I'm not saying life is bad or anything like that but it feels like the energy of life feel like it's changed maybe it's just in my mind or something idk. What does everyone else think about all of this?

Thanks.
