I think our new common ground is the eerie feeling of being tied up. Living in a box. Today is just like the past 365. It’s not that we’re aren’t trying to break free. Every day is a new way to shatter the glass windows surrounding uncertainty. We stand inside the aura of new experience while remaining tied to the strings attached to the presence of this day being just like day number 203. It’s us! Look at what we do daily, hourly and minute by minute! We’re repeaters. From the websites we visit, the newscasts we feverishly view to the conversations shared with friends, family and new acquaintances. The circle of life. Round and round. I start each new morning checking into every news outlet on the planet. I have to make the concerted effort to decide if the world is still spinning. Double click I’m in. Only to do it again. It’s the same story on the websites every day! Only the headlines change. This anchor we carry has got to be cut loose. It’s time to discipline ourselves. To make serious changes in our content and information gathering habits. More importantly we need to change the subject with the people we’re sharing face to face time with. I’m on the frontline. You think I’m listening to my heart? I’m listening to your conversations ten feet away. Maybe it’s the masks but people are speaking louder and without concern of being overheard. The same stories every day! No wonder we feel like we’re tied up. We’re acting like there’s nothing new to talk about. Maybe psychology will one day show that our need for human connection is to swap updates. It’s time to challenge our inner voices. Make the change. Make the solid effort to enforce new discovery. Instead of complaining about movie theaters being closed, open a conversation with talk about the latest flick on Netflix. Don’t be afraid to talk about your latest binge watch. Don’t bring up how bad remote learning is for your kids, find something positive. You can’t have a negative without comparing it to a positive. Locate the positive. Yes politics suck. It’s all over the place. You can be too. If change is to be made support someone who has your beliefs. Help them stay in office without having to live off what’s causing a storm. Become part of the rainbow or the dove carrying the olive branch. Change the subject. Change how we greet each new day. Don’t allow the headlines to change you first. Jump! I guarantee one thing when you move through my line, we’ll never talk about the same thing twice. Your turn.
