“To be fully “alive” sometimes feels like trying to drink from a fire hydrant.” Another amazing essay, Taylor

So much inspiration here Taylor. I've spent a long time coaching and motivating others in the realms of professional development and personal growth and it's notable to me how often people deny the truth of their beauty, strength, talents and basic goodness, just as much (or maybe even more) than they do their flaws, weaknesses or failings. We're born in flow because we don't deny that goodness, in fact as you illustrate, kids seem to be One with it. I observe for myself and for others that re-engaging the flow state remains difficult often because the activities that would produce the flow are right next to our strengths, talents and purpose, which is a very vulnerable place to stand and to be seen. In any case, I really love your writing. Glad to have your voice in my inbox.
