We hear a lot these days about the economic impact of the pandemic. Has this been on your mind? If so, tell us what you're thinking.

I have thought a lot about the economic impact of the pandemic. When I think about it, I mostly feel guilt because my household has been secure and comfortable this whole time. However, I know that others are not. My husband and I both have post-graduate degrees and have received our full salaries throughout the pandemic. We have two fridges, a deep freezer, and shelves full of food. We can order take-out whenever we want, and we can buy any new gadget or clothing we feel like buying. We have a lot of privilege, and we realize it. We know not everyone does, but we don't know how to make a difference for others except by donating to charities.
