Why I Write
|
I want to encourage my audiences to question what floods our social media feeds, news headlines, church sermons, and dinner table conversations. With the acceleration of the digital world, we are losing the ability to think critically, lead with empathy, and actively listen to what’s going on around us. I want to contribute to raising our collective analytical and emotional intelligence by creating worlds that embrace the meaninglessness of life. This way, we have the opportunity to decide what values to invest in. My goal is for my audience to feel completely in control of their lives.
