居然走在街上不害怕了

My 9 a.m. walk down to New York’s Penn Station for my train to Boston was
normal — for the new New York. I had to avoid an emotionally disturbed
gentleman brandishing a bottle, screaming at people to “get away from me.”
(Good advice.)
Four hours later, I de-trained in Beantown, dropped my backpack at my hotel,
and began a long walk — 21,599 steps.
I did not set out to take such a long walk: I had planned to spend much of
the day working in my room.
But as I walked on, I found myself relaxing. I walked the tourist spots of
Faneuil Hall and the wharves. I walked downtown. I walked the two parks. I
walked to the Prudential Center, and then all the way through the Fens and
the museum district.
I went to the museum, had a drink, took the T back, ate an outdoor dinner
and walked to my hotel, by myself — in the dark .
I gradually realized that I did not feel nervous at all. Nobody accosted me
screaming. Nobody looked like he was about to stab me if I refused to smile
at him. The dusk-time Green Line T was a paradise of people on their way
home from work, or on their way out to clubs.
Passengers chatted or scrolled their phones, rather than glancing at their
fellow passengers to assess the stabbing risk.
The next day, I worked all day on my computer, outside — and the same
unusual thing: Nobody harassed or threatened me. I took the Blue Line T to
East Boston, and did not have to figure out where to stand on the platform
to equidistantly avoid the would-be pusher and the would-be flasher.
I also noticed that there was no disorder: no piles of trash spilling into
the sidewalks. No needles.
Yes, Boston has pandemic scars — empty restaurant and retail storefronts,
fewer foreign tourists. But I didn’t wonder if a bomb had fallen on it.
