It's hard to try to put a silver lining on the world right now, and that's not all that I'm doing. I also wanted to share my experience so as to show you that if you want to stay as healthy as possible, and productive, and inspired, and socially active on the internet, than you absolutely can, you have the willpower, because even trapped inside a house with family around, humans can do remarkable things. However, just as much as it's good to indulge in online friendships, and creating art, it's also entirely okay to spend some time alone, enjoying art that others have made. One of my strategies during this time, is to try to pass the time as much as possible. There is going to be an end to this, and I optimistically hope it will happen sooner rather than later, so really the challenge is just how to last until then. I try not to think about it all too much, I try to keep myself busy, and constantly doing something, maybe even over-pack my schedule with more shows to watch, more stories to write, and more YouTube videos to make, than I'm able to in a day, and that way, I hope that time will fly by, and everything will be back to normal before I know it. That's just my strategy. It could also be good to enjoy art far more intensely than I've allowed myself the time for. Come up with a list of one hundred TV shows out there, even ones you're not interested in. Dedicate yourself entirely to them, one after another, and just push through the boring or bad ones, find what there is to be liked about them, maybe after spending enough time in the universe, you'll start enjoying being there. I will say, when it comes to silver linings, maybe not for the world, but for me personally, I do feel like a lot more people will understand my life experience now. Before all this, I worried sometimes, that when explaining what my life is to people, they would ask why I haven't got a job, or why I don't get myself out there and start making friends, what it is I do all by myself all day long. Now, I can just say that it was like when we all had to stay inside, except instead, the disease I've been fighting, is social anxiety.
