Much has transpired in my personal and creative journey since 2020 and the onset of the Covid pandemic. I will gradually unpack these experiences here – but for now, let’s just say that I’m finally ready to embrace social media.
As my friends know, I’ve always been averse to interacting in cyberspace. Given the proven harm the virtual world can inflict on mental and societal health, I’m wary of the dark side of algorithmically driven content designed to distract our dopamine-seeking minds.
This type of content takes us away from the present moment. It forces us to make comparisons and attempts to persuade us of an agenda-driven point of view, all the while stealthily coaxing us to make a purchase.
So, my aim for any contribution I make to the vast realm of online material is to provide content that is, at the very least, informative and useful. At its best, I hope my content will help bring you, the reader back into the moment, back to the essence of you. I hope we can have a dialogue, and that by sharing our experiences, we can build a community that values authenticity, inspiration, and the power of human connection.
