Beautiful essay, Irv. I, too, have really appreciated the quiet in my neighborhood, during this time. There is much less traffic, even now, and I love this. Your essay reminded me of a wonderful Sunday morning, when I took the train to Union Station from my home in the suburbs. I walked off the train, east on Madison. I emerged from the cool depths of the train station to a warm, windless day. The sun was shining, golden, on the limestone and marble facades of the tall buildings, and save for the clack clack of the el train half a mile away, there was silence. It was one of the most peaceful moments I've ever had.

My brother reminded me yesterday that each day is a gift.
