— So far, so good. We’re up near Corralitos, California, in a shelter-in-place zone, and are doing that. Just staying home. Feels strangely nineteenth century up here. Everything has slowed down and the trees are looking prettier and the sky seems like an old friend whose beauty you never fully appreciated, and so on. Feels like this thing, for all its horrors, might be a chance for the world to take a breath and go, “Wait, why have we been living this way?” (...) * In this, you are, and I am, I hope, like cave people, sheltering a small, remaining trace of fire through a dark period.
