These are tough days, for those of us with tons of friends but cut off physically from them, and for those of us who live more isolated lives to begin with but still quarantined into little bubbles. We’re all feeling disconnected in one way or another, trapped. And that feeling comes out in different ways… depression, anger, peevishness. It’s important to remind ourselves to look beyond the moment, to the motivation, to the root cause… we’re all feeling the pressure, the anxiety, the lack of or at least the change in routine. Remember: this too shall pass. And at least we — and I mean you and me and the rest of us on the grid — have our virtual lives as a small means of temporary escape to another life where we can still go and do exactly what we did before… see our friends, go dancing, explore, and of course shop our little hearts out. One thing that Second Life has really driven home for me is the global nature of this… of course, I KNEW it from the news, but it’s not quite the same thing as talking to your friend from Germany and another friend who lives in the UK and hearing about how topsy-turvy their lives have been as well. Let’s just all remember that we are in this TOGETHER. And that is the end of today’s sermon… just remember to be SAFE OUT THERE. And enjoy yourself in here!
