and then you’re hashing out childhood wounds and petty grievances and setting out all the obstacles in the light so you can face them together. Pretty nice human experience.

lately ive been in touch with someone who i have a lot of complicated emotions about and in general ive been trying 2 be very level headed about it, 2 not go 2 hard in either direction. however yesterday we kind of ended up having a more relaxed and honest talk which then led 2 me pretty much spilling my guts out
i mainly wanted 2 give decent advice about a thing we both struggle with from a perspective of a person who lived and coped with it longer and that partially went into a lot more of a harsh subject matter. it seemed pretty useful at first but then the conversation slowed 2 a crawl and it was just me talking about my previous pain into the void
i don't exactly regret it, after all if we are 2 be close again in any shape or form we got 2 be honest with each other, but it still sucks because i went somewhere that's very much a sore subject for me and presumably for them. pulling this kind of act is pretty difficult emotionally and I just woke up and im still thinking about it

Past few dates people have been opening up to me about their trauma/family dynamics/deep shame and it hasn’t been weird at all, I’m just here to listen and maybe share something in return and be a comfort. it’s kinda surprising for a first date but it kinda levels the atmosphere and breaks the ice super quick and let’s you see the complexities of who’s sitting before you

it’s scary, but it will only foster stronger and deeper relationships with those around you

Meeting notes, letters, journal entries, lists, mind mapping, whatever, it gives you a reason to use cool pens/markers, notebooks/paper. You can also practice your handwriting like when you were a kid (btw did anyone else’s school ascribe social status to the way you wrote a lowercase “a”?). This includes cursive which is a dying art!
Something something scientific studies about how writing by hand helps with processing information and emotions… but mostly, it’s just an awesome sensory experience. It makes your notes, ideas, etc. really feel like YOUR OWN.

If the desk is standing height and you have to do something boring, blast awesome music in big headphones and sway a little. Tap foot etc.
