The Big Gamble

Listen to "The Big Gamble" on Spreaker. At a time when so many can find reason to communicate, the decision to dislocate strong connections remains stable in their hearts. Somewhere along the path the idea of distancing was being practiced long before the Coronavirus. I wrote about "Ghosting" a lot in 2018 and 19. It was accepted because it was the internet and nobody's really true friends. If you are, then there's more to life than a web page. On this podcast I put focus on how short the lifespan was when it came to bringing compassion and understanding forward. As things begin to slowly open across the nation its physically visible on how we're evolving back into a mine mine view of the new expected. How are your relationships at work? Most of us are doing it from home via Zoom and other digital outlets. The question again. How are your relationships? There are no high fives or you rocks. There's no quick runs for fast food or a hot coffee from Starbucks. The coldest part of the journey is set to hit. We see things opening but we still don't have a hair stylist, nail salon, movie theater and dinner for two at Applebes. Why then are we dislocating from our reasons to communicate? A thought fell from my writing instrument this morning. An ancient lesson I've held close for many years. The strong suffer alone. Surviving through the dark. A prisoner of their own mind. As we grow more confident on this Coronavirus walk our strength will have its way. As will the silences we'll personally face. I didn't make up the statement. Its been lived by millions before us and long after. The strong suffer alone. Surviving through the dark. A prisoner of their own mind. We'll never know of your struggles unless you talk about it. Therefore we ask of you. Don't "Ghost" yourself.
