Enjoying the Isolation
Social distancing, staying home and the emptiness of the cityscape has been for some introverts, exquisite. Despite the significance, dangers and gravity of the pandemic, this time is an un-looked-for high point in the lives of some. There is a window in which to learn something important about introversion; if only by those who experience it. But there is also the risk that introverts will suffer if and when a sense of normalcy returns.

Re: Enjoying the Isolation
Well said, Beany Boo.
Like you stated, I at once both recognize the gravity of the macro situation (very grave indeed). On a micro level, me, I am making a virtue of necessity: required to stay home, I had no idea I needed this quiet, isolation, and un-stimulation this much.
