Thanks for the thoughtful response, Joan — I always appreciate your visits and insights!

Things definitely have changed; most people I know (and have known for a long time) tell me that they spend more time in reflection as they have aged... part of what often set me apart as a young person was the fact that I have probably always been in reflection.

In time, these strange times will give way to something else... and we will sit around and reflect on "The Covid Era."
