I would say that I'm sorry, but I think that this is likely a positive thing for you, an opportunity to shake the steadiness from your mind, and reach out to something new, as you've said above. Of all of the people I know facing this situation, I think you, in particular, will be fine. It's the end of the world as we know it, etc. I suggest that you and I should collaborate on a project, perhaps cross-platform app based, that changes the world in ways that we don't know yet. Cheers, brother.
