We should have more time than ever, since we have nowhere to be and nowhere to go. Yet time at home seems contracted as we adjust to a virtual workplace while caring for family members (or ourselves) with fewer resources. Then there are those who don’t have the luxury of being at home, who are running to give people the basics, or rushing to give patients the ultimate gift—more time.
Unanswerable questions loom over us all: How long will this last? Is there an end point on the timeline?
