First, I love you so very much. Second, all the gems in here, like how good it is when your friends write in a way that makes you jealous, that makes you love them, that makes you want to write. And then, of course; this part right here:
Technology and the digital age will continue to shift in a way that does not serve our attention, that pulls at the seams of our focus, that bullies us into believing if we do not use it we will not reach success or growth. Do not believe this
Here for all your molecules, and to wave in the wind, and to write, to just write. Also totally unrelated but related one of my friends left me a note about how she’s a tree and I’m the wind and I’ve been playing Patrick Swayze’s She’s Like the Wind on repeat. A surprisingly good voice.

There is definitely something in the part of the Universe that many of us are attuned to because I've been hyper-focused on lashing back on all the bullshit trying to bully my attention too. Just the other day I was raving to someone how sick I am of asking for money for the things I do – writing, mostly, and speaking and reading to audiences – to the point that I just want to QUIT IT ALL. But what else can I do then, with I'm all in with this? But this comment isn't a lament, Marlee; it's a fist raised in solidarity.
Hellooo and reporting from springtime in Vermont. I know there must be thoughtful and wonderful and gorgeous roadside stands all across the countrysides of elsewhere but I am feeling particularly grateful for our little slice of community here in VT. This shoutout made me smile and as always, thank you for sharing and for being x

This really is it, especially the bully part.
