📬 POSTCARD: SERENITY 🕊️ This week's postcard from me to you is about serenity. I hope it brings you something good. <3

Choose your enemies wisely because you’ll play to their level

I hate to be the one to say it but this would not cut it in a high-stakes situation

If you would like to help me heal from a difficult experience in my past, please like this tweet to send me unconditional love and healing energy

Sharing your experiences and insights with the world could help someone become healthier, happier, safer, more secure, etc. Well worth the cost of a few weirdos being all “Who are you to give advice” if it hits someone who really needs to hear your specific message (and there is)

In general, it seems like people (parents / elders) are strangely reluctant to share big-picture (but specific) life advice about e.g. relationships, what to value, what provides meaning, what is ultimately hollow, etc Growing up I mostly learned about “how to do school better”

I think it’s important for us to power through that and share what we’ve learned about the world and ourselves. Truth-based advice (even just neutral reporting of “this was my experience”) can go so far when it comes to helping people avoid mistakes or break out of bad patterns

I sometimes get the feeling there is negative energy around advice-giving. Partly because it’s hard to know if the advice is good (giver credibility), and there’s a social incentive to be an authority or “guru” (incentive to tell people what they want to hear / self-style). But…

I consulted the Oracle and she told me it’s a ramen and egg kind of night 🍜🥚

Welp the rabbit has the gun, the shoe is on the other foot, and I find myself staring at the side of the table previously pointed towards my enemies. God I miss sowing

I think people are generally more beautiful than they think they are (this tweet is about you)

*learning about projection* well I’ll just never think anything about anyone then

The moon is smiling upon us today, smile back

In a culture with an impoverished understanding of spirituality, sicknesses of the spirit will always be diagnosed as something with a scientific name instead

I think it’s hot when a book doesn’t have pull quotes from other authors endorsing it

Bro is there anything in the world that gets slept on more than beds

When a car alarm goes off that is such attention-seeking behavior… not everything is about you…

Our collective challenge, I think, is to start telling better stories about everything. Men and women. Meaning and purpose. Food and health, work and wealth. The thread of disenchantment running through the default culture can be dissolved by truth and beauty. It begins with us.

polination is so SO wholesome & we can do that too with smiles and thoughtful words and good style
