If it defines you, it’s in the way
Beautifully expressed and wisely felt, this is powerful !
I never quite know how to respond to this kind of comment, but I’m grateful it touched something.
"But when that need dies, meaning dies with it. And what’s left is not a better story. It’s the absence of story altogether." Isn't “the absence of story” still a thought ABOUT absence? I’ve never seen absence—only ever the story of its absence.
Yes. It’s still a story. But when there’s nothing to hold onto, even that falls away. Language can’t do much here, but sometimes it can point.
Yes, the relationship, the belief in a better story changes
When it's all said and done. Nothing really makes sense anymore. What I share is the mind's interpretation of experiences that never happened.
I appreciate your beautiful description and how words come together in these writings. Thank you
wow. this moved me to tears. thank you
