Every day is a decision to get back on the horse
Every morning, I wake up and hope my mind and body are on the same page. I am programmed to extremes, I don’t know what moderation feels like. I think I am young. I need to use this while I can, what will happen to my mind when I can’t use my body. I ask myself questions; what will today be like? This month? This year? I tell myself that I should always search for pleasure.

I Wanna Hug You
In the age of Covid-19, everything has been exacerbated and brought to the surface, the veil of comfort taken down, from larger systems to smaller moments in how families, friends and individuals operated. It has allowed for a period of deep reflection and questioning of how we used to operate, and also allowed for a visioning and commitment to a different future. It has created a global shift, where government, organizations, institutions, neighborhoods, families; everyone has had to evolve and adapt to a new social contract, a new way of existing.
Artist Dave Eassa asks the viewer to consider:
What are you leaving behind, what is coming with you?
What do you miss the most?
Leave a drawing, leave some writing, pass along something and hang it on the wall.

Places you don't know how to know
Every day we wake up, we get dressed, and we act on our marching orders, sometimes overzealously, sometimes begrudgingly. These marching orders come from our specific experiences, the beautiful and painful places in our lives that drive our purpose. As we move about the world, driving towards our next days, some places fade away, we leave them, they leave us, life happens. It hurts the most when you can't ever go there.

Stop and Smell the Roses Sometimes
If all else fails, find the Sun.
In times when it seems increasingly easy to become overwhelmed with current climates and negativity, take some time to remember the good. Celebrate the little things, and commemorate what makes you smile. A small act that keeps the wheels turning.
