Hook

Have you ever experienced a dry spell in your life? Perhaps your creative energy has completely dried up, your relationships feel a bit dusty and strained, or you simply feel disconnected from the world around you. It is a deeply human experience to feel like you are waiting for a rainstorm to wash away the dust and bring your inner world back to life.

When we face these dry seasons, our modern instinct is often to hide. We lock ourselves away in our rooms, scroll endlessly on our phones, or put on a brave face so that nobody can see our struggles. We treat our droughts as private embarrassments.
