ジョン・メイヤーさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ジョン・メイヤーInstagram)「I’m not a big birthday guy - after a certain age, I think only the big odometer rollovers are worth celebrating - but yesterday taught me something about The Pandemic Birthday: it’s taken on a second life as an identity-affirming show of connection and belonging. What an accidentally brilliant system, where for one day during this ongoing spirit-dimming ordeal, everyone will be held up to the light and not only celebrated, but reminded of who they are and what they mean to the world around them. I heard from loved ones, from my heroes, from my peers who continue to inspire me, from people with whom I wouldn’t have imagined my existence registered. We are all vulnerable to depression these days, no matter how low grade, and The Pandemic Birthday may just be the one act of universal mental healthcare we have to keep us afloat. So with that, I say in the parlance of our times: thank you all for the birthday love. ♥️」10月18日 6時22分
