It’s probably been the most difficult part of all of this pandemic fervor – canceled travel plans. And how do you make new plans when you have no idea where foreign countries you might like to visit will be in their battle? I have found a solution, friends!
Lately I’ve been watching the History and Science channels, devouring the UFO shows and investigations of UFO sightings. And then I go to Nat Geo for explanations of the universe, black holes, quasars, stars. When I get to thinking about “what else” is out there, it makes my world seem bigger, even if it’s only for twenty minutes on the sofa in between painting-my-house episodes. And thinking about how minuscule we really are in this universe, makes my problems pretty minute. Even if it’s only for twenty minutes on the sofa.
At this point, an alien abduction might be a welcome change! A chance to visit something totally new. Travel therapy.
It’s taken me a year to get the gist of this particular comic strip, “Macanudo,” but it’s coming around to a semblance of humor. I’m not the only one dreaming of travel.
