Grandpa’s favourite story’s about the pandemic, when everyone stayed inside to stay safe. People sang for strangers and painted with their kids. Those who were able ran errands, called old friends, learnt neighbours’ names. Terrifying times, but amazing, Grandpa says.
He’s obviously exaggerating. Surely people did these things before that?

Love this story. I grew up in a small town with lots of family and your friends and neighbors became like family… I miss those times.
Agreed, it would be a shame to go through all this for nothing to be any better at the other end.
Delightful twist – Looking back on this from the future. Love the question at the end.
