Two words: Tiger King. Most of
us have consumed more television in the last month than the last two years.
Movies and television provide an escape, and some of us have “disappeared” into
our favorite series. We are experts on Makeshift zoos and confirming that love
really is blind. Our digital boxes have become our security blankets. We use
them to get our news, (which increases our anxiety); and then with the click of
a finger, the very device that updated the death toll, turns to provide comfort
and healing through the characters we know and love. If we start to feel
concerned about too much intake, balance the television with other outlets,
such as reading or writing. Go for a walk or call an old friend. Who knows?
Perhaps the next best seller is waiting (in the middle of Covid) to be written.
