It occurred to me this week that in times like these we have both so much to lose, and so much to gain, all at the same time. I haven't developed my thoughts on this yet, but your post strikes me as related.

In my community, there have been so many instances of people going out of their way to support one another in just the last few days that I've lost track of the count.

Great essay; thanks for posting.
