I feel a strange connection to things. It’s as if everything for me perfectly aligns. I’m not saying everything falls into place or my lap for me. But I think there is a strange correlation between my life and how everything connects. Let me explain.

I started watching this show, Pantheon, on Netflix and I’m able to connect with it really well. Is it that we as people look to see ourselves reflected in media? I don’t know the answer to this question but I have one moment that I think of often when I do think of this. A friend of mine, an enigma in there own right, they’re driven, funny and charming. They once said that they look for shows that don’t reflect their life, decisions or values. This friend is not how I would describe our everyman though.

The moment I am able to connect with is a small scene in the show, Cody is explaining his wife’s accident to the Kim’s and The Promise is a big part of that scene. That song has a huge impact for me and means the world to me. The rabbit hole descends deeper. Laurie’s character certainly draws inspiration from Ghost in the Shell; my favorite anime movie of all time.

It’s little small connecting moment that get me through my days. As people often say, it’s the little things. I’ve taken this to heart.

I think becoming an adult leads us to look at the bigger picture more clearly. When you do this, the pictures sometimes crystalize, making the image sharper and more meaningful.

Dear Friend, I hope you are alright.
