reflections after july

In every moment, the Angel of Objective Rationality and the Angel of Empathic Sensibility perch on each of your shoulders. There they sit, lovingly throughout your days, waiting to be consulted.

Indeed, there is meaning in everything, but I don’t always have to find it.

What is the most challenging—but ultimately, perhaps, the most worthwhile—way to live? The middle way. The path that neither blindly subscribes nor cynically rejects and derides. The place where dullness and tranquility come to dance.

Emotions are vibrations I experience in my body. They are not who I am. They are not who I am.
