As the saying goes, "Everything old, is new again".
We seem to go in cycles. Being single and childless now, could change to a new interest in marriage and children down the road. Then, after awhile, back to single and childless again. Perhaps it's natural and gives us a chance to experience both lifestyles that would heal what needs to be healed and replenish what needs to be replenished.
With the threat of new viruses infecting our lives, this could be the time to keep the distance and build our lives in other ways. Then, someday, we will be ready to venture out and build our families again.
