Depending on our backgrounds, interests, understandings and so on... we see things differently
community clock wheels
What we do influence others
Reality in danger
To be afraid of losing something has often a lot to do about caring about it...
Time matters in many ways
So often it is hard to tell who gets there first, even who gets there at all... because we often move in different directions, depending on who we are and how much time we each think we have
Keeping reality to ourselves
Some interfere when they see others do things they disagree with, others just keep to their own reality and needs, as if wearing dog head protective collars - Keeping reality to themselves
Stop hoarding sign
We've tried it with drunk driving, smoking and cutting corners in other ways but do these signs ever work
Don’t panic thoughts
A few hours after the news of lock down because of a declared both global and national pandemic, people started flooding the supermarkets, hoarding toilet paper, cans, beans and frozen meat
Alone in the phone
In the trains, on the trails, in the homes and on the jobs, we are alone at our screens... And everybody seems to think it is fine...
Saying I’m fine and faking it
What is the difference between meaning it, and faking it?
Saying I’m fine and mean it
For some it is the quick answer no matter what the situation, and in a crises, some are really fine - Others just plan to fake it till they make it
Framing social distance
Different understandings of what it means make it more important to define it - or at least find ways to share our needs around it
Social distance aggression
Keeping social is becoming normal and a new kind of conflicts are based on it. Blaming people over and being frustrated about social distance
Reaching out between screens
We are connecting to each other more than ever, and at the same time less - And it seems to have a lot to do with digital technology. We simple shift from relating less offline, to more online. But does it work for us?
Dwelling on ways
Dwelling can both mean a house and contemplating or stopping at something, lingering there to see what is
Island of loneliness
If we can get people off the island of loneliness, and into caring and living networks and relationships, jobs and communities, who knows how many drugs we could do without
Head in the house
How much are we shaped by the places we live?
Alone on the seesaw
Children are more and more often indoors today, and more lonely than ever
Seeing the difference
Many of us live in bubbles where we seldom cross the paths of people living different lives - But it can be very healthy to realize that there are other realities than our personal ones
Being hard on yourself
It can be tempting to punish oneself for not living up to one's own expectations - but is it the best strategy?
Crises can define us
The Covid-19 pandemic has turned into a bit of a test for many of us. Will we act for the benefits of all, or secure our own personal thrive first without thinking of the needs of others
Party like the end of the world type
It is a different strategy than most people use when challenges fill the horisont, and it feels like we are on a steep cliff without hope
When crises build trust
Old people were told not to go outside, but instead rely on others to help them... It isolated some, but others it brought out of isolation
Flying solo vs in group
Some prefer to make it alone, to be a one man band, enjoying a kind of freedom that seems different from the freedom in groups
Keeping distance together
Slowly communities are changing all over the world. Will we find new ways to get back together, or is loneliness an ever growing trend?
