Beautiful expression! Oddly, and perhaps a bit abstractly, this saying from Soren Kierkegaard (by way of Dune) popped into my monkey brain in response: "Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced." I am forced to acknowledge I've come rather late to love (beyond my own body), and the hard way at that. Well, that's life!
Great points & I feel like that’s where a lot of big corporations fail. They don’t “love”.
I love this post & the fact that it’s world bonobo day!! I take care of my 3 monkeys everyday (my kids😅) and can’t wait to start getting creative again but for now, I write weekly blurbs on The Honeymama Journal and that makes me happy.
As always, a wonderful read! I especially love the Babara Sher video. The end part is the part that got lost in translation during the whole "follow your bliss" advice; we really don't need to monetize the things that make us happy in life or feel pressured to do so. There is so much I could say on this topic!
Wonderful piece, Rosana. The Barbara Sher video was great. I would like to figure out a way to incorporate that into my job hunting newsletter. It also made me think of my dad, since that's a speech he would give if he were in her shoes.

I love reading poems and stories and essays and getting paid to do so!!
