there are so many dead versions of you fossilised in other people’s minds
we have to make peace with that
our ghosts are still running around causing a ruckus in other people’s stories
being alive is weird

[There is, of course, no human life worth sacrificing to preserve a quill-scrawled line written three hundred years ago about forming a colonial militia. Charlie Kirk’s grieving family joins the thousands of shattered American families each year in understanding the most obvious flaw to his argument: There are no acceptable gun deaths. If the cost of preserving a musket-specific amendment to an already-upended Constitution is Americans being slaughtered in public with harrowing regularity, then that amendment has run its course in the reality of modern America.

Love this advice from my friend Abbey Nova
My therapist once said to me, ‘What if it’s easy?’ which has become a motto to remind myself to stop catastrophizing.
