In my last post, I said:
I don’t want to sit here and write about ‘slowing things down’ or ‘doing things differently’ per se, because I don’t want to be a part of that wheel, but yet that’s kind of the point of this newsletter.
I don’t know whether it’s because I’ve been tuned into it lately, whether I’ve read too much about it, or whether we’re all so burned out it’s the only thing anyone’s actually talking about, but it feels like a well-worn trope. The ‘slow’ movement. It’s a thing. And as soon as something becomes a thing, it makes me feel less inclined to want to be a part of it. Not because I’m wanting to be oh-so-unique-and-special-darling, but because it then doesn’t feel like mine. It stops feeling authentic, and becomes a thing that I don’t want to experience like other people, even if it is the same thing.
Still following? I’m not sure I am, but I’ll try and explain.
