[Pandemic - VI]

As of today, 260,000 people have died due to COVID-19. That’s horrifying.

One of the wisest people I know said to me, “A problem always has another side, and until you come at it from another angle, you’re blind to the possibility of at least half the solutions.”

The more we consider all this senseless death, the more we ought to consider the "other side".

What’s the backside of death and suffering?
What is the antithesis of dying and decay?
What energy is positive to death’s negative?
What's the inversion of disease and infection?

I don’t believe it’s survival.

It’s creation.

Creation is bringing something new into existence. Manifesting something new in the world. Nurturing something, fashioning something, building something that didn’t formerly exist.

This process is the opposite trajectory of dying and death. It’s the inversion of decay. It’s the antithesis of decomposition.

Create connections.
Create garden beds.
Create new habits.
Create a book idea.
Create a dinner from scratch.
Create a new skill.

Create, create , create.

In the creating, we will find solutions.
