YOUR PERSONALITY IS
Modern Romantic
You’d never say it out loud because you don’t want anyone to take it the wrong way, but you think the extended time out we collectively endured wasn’t such a bad thing. Of course, your heart goes out to anyone who fell ill, but now that we are where we are, it’s obvious that folks are more grateful, appreciative, and conscious of all they have.
