So much has been going on in the world, and the heinous evils of men are unable to hide any longer. several times I’ve found myself aware that when things become unbearable, I must write. If I don’t get them out, my feelings, my overwhelm, will consume me. But what is my discomfort in the face of seemingly endless barbaric cruelty and malice, when so many are directly in its path? At what point does the suffering of others effect us, by causing us to refuse to participate by either sitting idly by or by remaining silent? Because inaction is the most damning action of all.

What is the point of this life if we just seek to destroy it? At what point do we as humans recognize we are holding ourselves back when we continue to believe we are separate from nature and separate from creation? In our unending seeking of the meaning of life, we are forgetting to have reverence for life.

As the whole stupid race for “AI dominance” continues, how many artists, writers, painters, dancers, thinkers, and creators will we lose to brainless AI pseudo-creation, based on stolen human creations? Each time I look at jobs available for creatives, I see more and more jobs pop up for creatives to train AI, to do creative work. These technocrats are trying to erase the humanity out of humans. They do nothing but consume and destroy, and expect us to program their robots to take our work from us. It’s such a wild thing to witness, I wish I was back on the old timeline!

I hope that you are using your brain to make art, to write, to create, whether it’s “good” or “bad”, MAKE ART! We need to be the creators we are meant to be, and we need to remember we are here to create, to feel, to learn, to love. Engaging with and in art can open up doorways in our brain that rewire our synapses and stimulate neural circuits involved in adaptive emotional regulation, which we all need. To create, without judgement, without fear, without need for approval, is such a profound way to connect to your inner self, your eternal self, your weird self, your hidden self. Which ever self is aching to break free, you can create with endless whimsy and let go of the ruminating thoughts that block your ability to see how we can rise above the systems that seek to oppress humanity.
