Michael- I love the topic of darkness v. light. Somehow I always arrive at the same conclusion: when darkness and light meet, light always wins. Your writing is a great reminder. Hope you're well this week. Cheers, -Thalia

It's helpful to hear this come from someone I consider very rational, thank you. As I was reading I was nodding along as if it was about me. It seems like regular life stuff seems harder, and leaves me more run down, than the average person. I have never been able to discern if this is simply an innate distaste for life's regular chores or something more. I have found myself much better at not being so judgmental as I can often see pieces of myself in that person and, if I can't, I firmly remind myself it's none of my biz.

A great essay Michael.
