Hey Kwaku, I am worried that I often fail to tell the differences between the frameworks I have set for myself and to what extend I become a prisoner of these frameworks that I have just set for myself.

I think that’s where flexibility and self-awareness come into play. And actually I think trust plays a big part. Trusting yourself that you know what is good for you.

trusting ourselves, that's right. this is on top of my mind about how I can cultivate this in my kids. the first step I reckon is to trust myself first.

This feels expansive to read. I relate so much to your second sentence - this has been my life experience so far. This kind of attunement is so powerful.

Thanks for bringing me back to the second sentence that I wrote. The information load these days are so overwhelming that I couldn't ever recalled what I have written down just a few weeks ago. Such an absurd thing to think about as I have spend so much time thinking about what to do, but soon enough I forget about it. Thanks again Nova for your thoughtful comment. This means a lot to me.

It’s wild. Nothing prepares you for how much disconnection, connection requires. But you have to fight for your solitude —and informationless spaces, more than ever.

It’s okay to change your mind.

And it’s also okay to approach something in your own way.

Too often we are too attached to the past and forget the future in front of us is wild open.
