poignant
I'm putting this behind a cut because people have different bandwith for stuff. This is not a tragic story, but it's --well, like the subject line says. Poignant.
Of course it is on lockdown right now, no one can visit anyone there, for the protection of the residents' health. Today I went for a walk in the environs of that facility, and there was a couple, about my age, probably, and probably husband and wife (but possibly siblings), pressed up against the exterior of a window on the ground floor. They were talking to someone on the inside. I walked about a mile and a half; they were there at the start of the walk and there at the end. We do what we can to support one another.
It was a very salient image of our times.
