Right after listening to Kerry K this morning, my daughter showed me this first video, which quickly had tears rolling down our faces. Okay, so yes, our hearts got blasted open a little by what Kerry had to say. You may have listened yourself and felt the same as we did…that she’s giving voice to and confirming what, on a very deep level, we’ve already experienced feeling:
Rather untethered and unattached, not especially interested in much of the current reality…maybe even feeling apart from our own personhood. Primed for a life-altering shift we are.
Anyway, Kerry’s message touched a part of us that truly wants nothing more than to be riding that first wave. Whoever crafted these ads 7 years ago is actually a genius, because now, I sure do want to go visit Oregon, or the New Earth, whichever opportunity comes first.

We watched that first creative masterpiece, which my daughter was already familiar with. This next one came up as a suggestion to watch next, and so…

Three years later they came up with this next one. All of these ads rather brilliantly speak to something that’s been sorely missing in many of our lives, maybe for longer than we can recall…Fun! We want to get jazzed about something, look forward to the doing of it, with friends and loved ones.
We need a collective holiday.
