> My hope is that all of you are safe and in good health as we stay in place until there’s a safe way forward.

> The term “gaslighting”is defined as manipulation into doubting your own sanity. It comes from the 1944 Movie, Academy Award Winner Gaslight.

> in my tracks. As you all know part of my professional background was in the advertising business. This article captures
> what may be coming to wake us out of our “ collective induced coma” around the global coronavirus pandemic.
> 
> Nobody knows the way forward. This article suggests big government & big business may try to “gaslight”  us thru messaging on a massive scale thru
>  advertising and social media into getting back to the way our lives were before the induced pause…and before we have a public health plan
> in place locally to know it’s safe to be out and among people again.
>  
> So I ask you to read it ( about 8min) and be informed  & vigilant as the gaslighting begins. Be especially mindful of the conversations ,media and messages you are consuming. Be active in your response 
> to local public health efforts to make it safe for a safe return.
> 
> Stay safe. Stay aware. Stay the course.

> ….. from an ad guy who knows the power of images thru promises for the true & beautiful .

> true precious audaciousness
