Early this morning, the wee hours found me tossing around in bed, wide awake and unable to shake the need to further explore this whole “connecting the [micro] dots”<\/a>\u00a0rabbit hole\u00a0I dove into in\u00a0yesterday’s blog post. And so here I am, riffing\u00a0—\u00a0raw and real.<\/p>\n

I’m inspired\u00a0by\u00a0the concept of “Editorial Evolution”, a term of which I manifested\u00a0unexpectedly in my mind’s explorations of life, work and\u00a0survival in today’s strange, rapidly changing, world\u00a0of words. Journalism, creative writing, essays — these have mostly all been lumped into “content marketing” and “copywriting” today, all in the name of making more money, sell sell sell instead of read read read …<\/p>\n

From micro-dots to dot.coms to the dots of ellipsis … This reoccurring appearance of little round circles tickled\u00a0my early morning head. Why are these black dots bouncing around in\u00a0my psyche as we march into the future (much too quickly\u00a0for this luddite of\u00a0the learning curve) of the digital race?\u00a0It is often said that all of life is nothing but patterns, and I do believe that\u00a0this is the\u00a0case here.<\/p>\n

Follow the bouncing ball, the dancing dot, towards the unknown — trusting that ellipses will get us there safely, if not without a bit of turbulence.<\/p>\n

Keep connecting the dots as we tootle along, and hopefully we’ll get by just fine.\u00a0Here’s to perceiving\u00a0these patterns\u00a0towards a more harmonious humanity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
