“Dear PoPville,
First, my sincere condolences to those who have experienced involuntary and unwelcome changes in their lives recently — the death of a loved one, sickness, the loss of a job, food insecurity, and more. Those changes are dreadful and extremely sad. I hope things get better soon for those who are hurting.
Second, this is sort of like a Friday question of the day. I’m curious to hear about people making voluntary positive changes as a result of the pandemic. When the current health crisis is deemed less urgent and stay at home orders have lifted, will readers be inspired to make some permanent changes in their lives? If so, what?
Will you donate more to charity, forge a new career, spend more time with family and friends, ramp up your exercise routine, travel, pick up or continue a new hobby, end a toxic relationship, start dating again, volunteer for a political campaign, dine out more, dine in more, change your hairstyle — what voluntary changes are people contemplating and/or looking forward to after we get through this?”
