Beautifully written.
“Maybe you knew this all along. Maybe this was why you were so quick to fall in love with everything in sight; maybe you sensed instinctively the overflowing fullness of all things too soon, before you were ready to grasp their interior complexity.”

– le sigh. reality what?
You know that point in the writing process where words and letters turn into shapes devoid of value or meaning and you can no longer be certain whether you’re actually saying anything or if it’s all just empty content and maybe you’re just talking in circles?

Big meetings discussing big dreams
Creative process, spitballing ideas, throwing mud at the wall in the way only serial entrepreneurs can do
Tomorrow we begin the process of changing our company....

Of course the day I’m completely hungover and useless would be the day a prospective supplier nails me with a spur-of-the-moment video conference. That moment of panic when I’m furiously scrubbing the smeared makeup from underneath my eyes and tugging fingers through my hair stings to be sure, but it doesn’t hold a candle to the horrifying...
