The weather is getting hotter and hotter which means we need to make sure to stay cool. As you have probably noticed, the weather is becoming unusually hot in some places in the world because of climate change. The feeling of despair and hopelessness feels so strong right now because what can we do? I am not the with answers to how we can all magically fix it but, we have to keep moving forward and find ways to take care of the earth. While our actions are small and the bigger issue is with large corporations, we can still take off each other and make sure strangers are safe, hydrated, and healthy.
Creativity is something that I have been at a standstill with lately. I still have my moments of inspiration but, sitting down and creating something has been feeling a little bit harder than normal. The desire to do it isn't calling me as it once has. The weird part is that I still am sad when I am not creating. I know that the wall I am currently hitting is burnout and I am trying to figure out what the best next step is. I will still find ways to create but, burnout is a hard one to deal with. I do know that sometimes the best thing to do for creativity is nothing which is something that I am trying to master more and more. Remember, rest is important.
Also, I was back at Stomp to swing in this past week - it is always an adventure!
