Conversation with wife: an existential crisis is really a sort of expectation crisis- it’s the horror of falling from the height of your expectations, down to the reality you actually already inhabit. It’s interesting to consider that staying up takes more effort than coming down

My favorite example is the "Litany of Gendlin", which was reified by folks on LessWrong some years ago. It totally reads like a litany when displayed like this with the line breaks, but it wasn't originally meant as such. It was just a paragraph in Gendlin's book Focusing! https://t.co/gLt0imsZYU
