I’ve been thinking a lot about talking to strangers. As vaccination rates in the United States continue to climb, I’ve seen and felt the change in the 10-block radius—also known as my neighborhood—where I’ve spent the past year. Fuller tables at restaurants, more grandparents at daycare drop-off and at the playground, more conversations with neighbors who used to just wave as we passed. Everything feels so different than it did this time last spring.
