How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

I had a wonderful conversation with a friend in my building that I think sums up most eloquently what we are experiencing. She quoted Victor Frankel who, referring to the horrors of the concentration camp that he was living through, said that "we must be worthy of this time". Not that this time in any way compares to that horrible experience, but it does put any inclination to complain or be impatient into a whole new category. I hope to be worthy of this time in my life, when the clock is definitely ticking down my days on this earth. I want to be able to say at the end of every day, well, I can feel good about how I spent at least some of this day.
