@soundrotator one of my prev new years resolution was "compliment people more" and that spirals into being more attentive and open to others and more focused on the details of the texture of their being. I think people really appreciate being seen truthfully that way

Funny how bristled and angered I used to be by optimistic and enthusiastic peers. I always thought they were faking it or lying, or that they were just naive due to good luck and untroubled lives. I've become the person past me would've disliked the most 😂😂😂

This is the architect <-> civil engineer relation. "Impossible to make this structure!" and then you don't know if they're telling straight facts or not, because you don't know enough! Architect Santiago Calatrava was SO real for being "FINE I'll be the engineer too then!"

I'm not optimistic because the world has never hurt me. I am optimistic because the world has hurt me, repeatedly, in institusional and personal ways, and yet I am here. I have survived, and I'm happy 🥹. How can you not be optimistic when you've experienced that?

i have never had a relationship that did not have a positive impact in my life, even if it is damaging the other 90% of the time and i end up never wanting to see them again. there are so many reasons to love another human being, even if the only way is to love them from afar.

Recently, whenever I'm alone and not on twitter, I can feel waves of emotions underneath, ready to crash to the shore if I let it. I cognitively "know" this feeling, but I am also scared. It feels like if I don't control it the wave would become a tsunami.

ime you can be emotionally constipated even if you easily cry!!! i do, but before i got therapy, it was Phantom cries. i kept crying for my projections instead of what i actually feel. clean pain vs suffering. one melts away and one is endless until you're honest with yourself.

Playing with the frame that everything I do will be a incomplete, one way or another. "Perfection doesn't exist" doesn't do it for me, it doesn't emphasize _why_ perfection doesn't exist. Everything I do, think, or say about will be a mistake in some way. Feels liberating!!

If I've learnt, from the 18 yrs I've lived with them, that every small disagreement can turn into a fight, that every fight can turn into days long resentment, the only way to decrease my suffering is to shut up and go along with everything. It makes sense that I stop trying

Learning to not overthink (or *overfeeling*) has freed up so much of my time and energy! No more 3-days shopee binge trying to optimize which pans to buy No more thinking too much of what I said to people on a daily basis No more constant suffering 🥹

forcing it to be changed, being 'cheered up' when im sad or angry dismisses the emotion. it represses it again. thankfully, if it's been unrepressed it's usually immune to shackles for a short period of time!!! unfortunately i haven't found this to work with shame. hrmmmm

being in the UK is funny because everyone sounds like they're either narrating a documentary or the subject of a documentary

If you want people to be open to you, you have to give ~safety~ vibes. If *you* want to be more open, you have to clearly discern safety/danger and understand what level of agency you have If you're a facilitator, you have to increase ppl's personal agency on safety

If you realize you've been the source of your life's dramas, you can also realize that as the writer, actor, and director, you can change the genre! Want a funny life? Write a comedy script

Wishful thinking that being under the sun for 2+ hours everyday works to reverse *some* myopia in adults. Maybe it's time to experiment with myself 🥹!

A major takeaway from my recent conversation with Chair of Ophthalmology @StanfordMed : kids and adults should get outside 2 hours a day. Why? It can offset myopia (near-sightedness) & development of myopia. How? Still unclear but it’s likely sunlight and far-viewing combined. On

are *all* distractions just things that I choose to focus on because what I feel was far too painful for me to actually experience at the moment? if so, is that how I show up from now on, by increasing my capacity to the pain I carry, so I can look at it for what it is?

being in a career transition space is weird when you don't believe in traditional career structures as something that inherently matters but you still have to interact with large infrastructures of the world where for them it DOES matter

Working thought: A good interior designer/architect is not someone who has the best taste, but who can guide the clients to figure out *their taste* and *how to realize their taste*

I have been thinking about this video for a *very long time*, and I can *finally* articulate it: What if these instant attunement to attachments happen unconsciously for adults too?? Or even sometimes, to strangers??

This video demonstrates perfectly how when a baby’s inner experience comes into conflict with their caregiver’s, their own sense is abandoned in favor of the adult’s. Trust in our own signals grows when an attuned caregiver provides experiences of congruity between these things.

Sometimes when you're in pain you just want to feel it. Get it into your body, feel how pain tenses your limbs, stomach, throat. How it changes your body language, your spoken one. Grateful that I have people around me who understand this and don't try to change my state.
