A lot of my time is taken up with keeping an eye on the changing nature of Covid and national politics. Regarding Covid I think that the more that unvaccinated people see videos of unvaccinated people in hospitals describing how they wish they'd gotten the vaccine before they got sick will lead to more people getting vaccinated. This seems to be one very convincing argument - at least for the people who's family member just died or suffered horribly for a couple weeks.
Hopefully, this current surge will push the vaccine-hesitant to finally get vaccinated. There does seem to be an up-tick in vaccination rates, so, we'll see. My heart goes out to all healthcare workers - they must be so exhausted by all of this and our society's stupidity at not rushing to get vaccinated. Please keep an eye out for any video showing what I describe above and send it my way. Thank you.
On a more personal note, I've been thinking about finding more work. Partly, to switch into getting compensated for what I'm mostly doing for free. But also partly to challenge myself and learn some new skills. I'm not exactly sure where this might lead, but I've been thinking about how to get public speaking skills into the hands and voices of the next generations. That is not a skill I remember learning in school and as far as I can tell it's a weakness in our society. I've done Toastmasters in the past, but I'm seeking something that's more current and accessible.
Oh, and I'm still looking for love :) I took a break from dating apps, but have rejoined them again. Feel free to set me up with someone you know :)
I hope this month's 11 finds you enjoying, learning, breathing, eating well, and staying connected. Please write back with how you're doing.
Lots of love, Albert
