I can’t find my creative spirit . A writer friend just died. The Haiti situation grows more horrifying by the day. I’d love to dive into my story world and shut the sadness out for a while but when I try to work, my mind feels empty.
I watched the Golden Globe awards this week. One of the actors said we need entertainment now more than ever. Our minds need an escape from hardship and heartache. We are so privileged to have the option of turning on the TV and tuning out. To plop down in comfortable furniture in our climate controlled homes…eating and drinking without thought.
The economic situation seemed so devastating until the earthquake last week. Now our lack pales in comparison.
