Strange Days

Help me! It’s too much!! More than I can handle at one time!!!

For the first time ever, we had all four pro sports leagues in North America operating at the same time. Three of them in their playoffs in a two week span.

Sensory overload after months of deprivation. What a weird year.

Movies releases on hold. A summer without amusement parks and festivals. Empty streets at nightfall. Silent concert venues.

And of course, the heavy stuff.

Lives lost. Mass depression. Fear and disillusionment. People losing everything.

In all of this uncertainty, change & “madness”, there is hope. In this bizarre alternate reality, there’s sparks of creation.

This is where artists & inventors feast. On the pain, on the arcane, on the fear, on the abnormal. They see the possibilities. Ideas bloom!

Tend to your gardens, my friends! Create the services, the music, the art, the resources that will help us all rethink not just what we want, but better understand what it is we actually need. To better come to terms with understanding & accepting this particular moment in life we’re collectively experiencing.
