Hello there! Here’s another update. Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter Holiday. I am thankful that many religious leaders and United Nation leaders are pushing for Peace and various Ceasefires. It is time for every nation on Earth to gather together and fight this Coronavirus. That also includes Israel to stop the blockade on Palestine. Let us pray for peace in Afghanistan, but hopefully not at the expense of the women and children of Afghanistan. Let us not forget Syria either. As tormented that country has been by war, just imagine what damage COVID-19 could do to it. It’s time for Russia/China to back off in Syria, and bring the situation to Peace.

Given the current climate, you can tell that I have a lot of reports to write. I am still finding the time to stay in high spirits, thanks to the release of FF7R, Top Gear marathons (Grand Tour won’t be back for a while), and reading every issue of Computer Music in the past few years. It is also giving me time to do a lot of podcasts!

Everyone working in the hospitals around the country and the world are deep in my thoughts and I think of them every time I meditate/pray.

We need leadership in this time of crisis. I am thankful that there are people in Congress who are finally forcing Trump to select someone (preferably military/doctor) to be in charge of all aspects of fighting the coronavirus.

Until next time!
