Ushering in a New Era of Human Formulation » Post-COVID-19
The Enduring Nature of Humankind
Our Human “Together-hood”
The arc of humanity has endured countless life altering transitions throughout the course of our existence—each time, challenging 🥊 the resilience 🌱 of our being. It turns out that humanity holds within it, an undercurrent of magnetic propulsion, 🚀 expounding the very nature 🌳 of what it means to live a full life, one that seeks to further the depths of true meaning, to extend our ability to love ❤️ and laugh as creatures of earth. 🌎
Here, now, in spring of 2020, we pause ⏸ our once know world to save our own selves. A species now totaling 7.8 billion souls — we must go inward, towards a future yet known. The COVID-19 virus 🦠 has swept the world by storm 🌊 and continues to pound the populous of the world over. Our turn towards together-hood might be our only path forward—to exude a separate, yet networked trial of interconnectedness. ✋ ⟵ ⟶ ✋
Organizing at a Global Scale
Imagine for a moment the gravity 🪂 of human advancement coming to a screeching 😱 halt—a titanic shift in a matter of weeks. That’s how humanity has shifted its economies 🏛 » down to the basis of our every day living. Entire countries 🇨🇳🇮🇹🇰🇷🇮🇳🇺🇸 have oriented towards a shelter-in-place doctrine 📖 India, a country of some 1.2 billion people went on a total lockdown. 🔒
And yet, the depths of human fortitude show great promise! Never before have we organized 📚 at such a scale, ⚖️ with such discipline 🏃♀—both for ourselves and others. Have we been perfect? Nope. Certainly not. Our instincts have kicked into overdrive (fight 🥊 or flight 🛫 mode) to combat a deadly life form that brings with it such radical fecundity. This virus 🦠 is kicking our ass 🍑 butt, it is war we are stepping into. The virus is winning the battle, but our human trajectory will undoubtedly cast ⛵️ our speciation with an enduring force into the future.👩🔬
Humanities Revision
Our advancement in modern times has been put in check by mother nature 🌳 herself. We are and will forever be connected 👐 to our dear earth. We must look towards our new state of livelihood with a deep 🌋 embrace, as we are among a massive sea 🌊 change in the will of the world. We are stepping into a territory that requests a deep seated 💺 revision. And what better time for all of society to do it than in our togetherness? History suggests that innovation 👩💻 comes most prevalently in times of distress! 😶 Let us design our lives anew —transformed 🤖 into something that quite possibly would have never come to light 💡 if it weren't for such an uncertain worldly event.
It’s times like these, where the depth of reflection 🔍 is truly most magnificent, and fully understood 🤔 when we go inward, throughout time, ⏲ into ourselves, forever.
Essential Formulation
The world 🌎 will forever be reshaped 🔮 by the events of this pandemic. It’s is imperative that we capture and rebuild the formulation 🧪 of life as the basis by which we define the next 🚪 trajectory of humanity. What values will we sweep 🧹 into our core ethos? We are undergoing a reset 🕹 that is asking all 💁 of us to reimagine a new version of our collective self. What essentialist principles will you pool into your days? 📆 How will you become a new, more authentic 🤔 and virtuous human?
Designing our Future, Forward
Humanities movement into this new decade have hit us like a freight train! 🚋 And yet, here we are, beckoning on—momentarily 😮 paralyzed by the very thought 💭 of loosing our known way of living. The future is in our collective capacity to design it! What pivots 🏀 and adjustments will we make as we begin to turn the corner on this damn 🦠 virus? What will we let fall 🍂 by the wayside in favor of a new, 🌞 brighter future?
The virtuosity of life is here, now, as it was, 🔭 as it remains, and as it always will be. It is entirely within our collective declaration ⛵️ that we turn wholeheartedly onto a more connected 🙌 and socially rich transcendent future. It is in all motion, both big and small that will shape 💠 the resounding nature of a life 🗽 yet known—of true proportion—sized to create the most vibrant formulation of humanity the world has yet seen.
Towards our future, forward!
