This reminds me of a time, shortly after I started a new job in 2012, my department had an assistant who was so proud she had worked hard and saved all her money so she could retire at 55. She was very vocal about it. About a month or so later she was not in the office and had been diagnosed with cancer and passed away shortly after that. I have always wondered if she had know she would die at 54, would she have saved all her money and worked so hard for a retirement that would never come? Memento Mori; remember you will die so that you live while you are here. ❤️
Yooooo... that is -- pardon my overly relaxed language here -- but that is fucking gnarly. and a somewhat devastating (yet equally valuable) lesson. Holy shit. I never quite understood people who were okay with just slaving away and planning on beginning their life at retirement... i would legit get into arguments with one of my ex's about it because that was his plan and im like dude that makes no fucking sense!! and yet here i am, overworked and burned out and spun. Thank you for this reminder because apparently I need memento mori tattood on my face. How easily we forget the ONLY certainty there is - the doorway of death 🙏
Thank you for being here, for supporting it, and for sharing that-- to hear that you are left a little bit better off is reason for me to have hope and keep going, so thank you for giving me that gift as well.

I have no words, Tess - absolutely beautiful.
Thank you... <3
Thank YOU. Part two will be out tonight. Much gratitude to you.
It’s the space, the rest. Image the music w/o the rest, the pause, you cheat yourself if you don’t.
Well stated 🙏
Your work for me always has a revelation, I'm always left just a little bit better off.
Thanks again.

Yes indeed. ❤️
i don’t know,
it’s shallow here
i can’t hold my breath
for long
for fear
of what might be found
so
i will guess instead
the fear of being wrong
Is weak
even if it weren’t
adventure is strong
and I blame the spirit
for the impulse
