Middle-age
men across America, and frankly around the world, have been chicken-cooped up
inside in safe shelter in place mode much too long for their primal liking. It’s
a matter of time before they throw up their arms in disgust, protest and revolt
and begin shouting, “Enough is enough!”
After
all, it’s one month into Spring 2020, the weather continues getting nicer each day and outdoor activity needs aren’t being satisfied by peeking
outside from the living room window watching the birds, butterflies and squirrels fly and climb about.
This
shelter in place quarantine isn’t good for middle-age man self-esteem and it's creating a proclivity for random nonsense and relentless restlessness.
Middle-age men unreleased pent-up energy is creating various behaviors and feelings, some which are unfamiliar or unidentifiable.
At
times, they might be in a frantic panic.
Or, they might be feeling melancholy, by golly.
And, after
watching too many hours of fake news on television, they might be spewing
snarky malarkey.
Any
which way you look at it, they're envisioning an end to what they’re
experiencing. They want to be released into the wild, shelter in place chains
unshackled, and free to roam from here to there.
They yearn for a normalcy that creates an aura of middle-age man energy and joy like an
elation constellation.
Pax Domini sit semper vobiscum
