Everything is different. As if someone painted life as we know it in colors our brains can’t quite comprehend. People walking the streets wearing homemade masks. Keeping our distance has become the ultimate showing of love. Parking lots and shopping malls, once packed with the bustle of people, stand empty. Planes stopped flying. Stadiums stand quiet. Calendars cleared of events for the foreseeable future. Even school doors have shuttered. A collective, great pause. In its own way…an exhale.
