Whoever wants music instead of noise, joy instead of pleasure, soul instead of gold, creative work instead of business, passion instead of foolery, finds no home in this trivial world of ours.
I'm stating the obvious: the person who said that to you is mean and likely projecting.
But I also wanted to say it's more than okay to give up on a project or a goal. Sometimes things don't work out. Sometimes we try things and we don't like them. This is for the people who pressure themselves to finish things even if it's obvious it's not for them.
Feels good when i am able to recall exactly what each of your favourite essays contain when you mentioned them, falling into life,, critical coincidences, etc.
you've come a long way and so have i, eventually moving closer to ourselves and the people we want to be.
I hope you have a very good year ( you have the power to make it so ) and good luck with your new job ;)
Your essays are a soft blanket for my heavy heart. I adore every word you write β₯οΈ
