Am I Doing It Right? Do You Love Me?

Aug 4, 2020

Our identity loops - the process in which we are guided, affirmed and given feedback - are broken. They used to be closed by our parents, our families, our communities. Now they are being highjacked by social media. There is a wave of depression, suicide and meaninglessness that has arrived on our shores and we are turning a blind eye to its cause. We are pretending to not know why this is happening because we are, ourselves, addicted to it. We as parents are still seaching for our identities online, and our children are paying the costs. The question of 'Am I doing it right? Do you love me?" is something that we need to bring into the light, because we are all asking it and we always have. Our children are asking it, and we're no longer answering. We're leaving them to fend for themselves, online, with the mob of group think and keyboard warriors. This is fucked. Get off social media. Do it right now. Delete the apps. Block the websites. Do it for yourself and do it for your children. We don't know where this will end, but the chance that its with rainbows and butterflies is absolutely zero. SUPPORT THIS PODCAST AT WWW.PAYPAL.ME/ARIINTHEAIR
