The Worrying Mind is always trying to hold the entire timeline in mind. Making sure the actions will fit. https://t.co/9qVhSqd3SX

I can feel my Worrying mind waking, when I wake up. It helps me feel more kindly towards it,

The Unworrying Mind is just here. In the only place where things happen. https://t.co/8wbWigua8A

I love how when you walk, the world comes towards you. You just have to wait long enough, and it arrives

It’s because of this that the Worrying Mind never actually is able to *experience* anything. A wonderful party, a wonderful summer, they’re both filtered, through many layers of symbols, and it’s kinda nice—“ayy, we had a party!”—but there’s never the sense of real delight. https://t.co/omCXAaBti1

I lived in an Optimising Mind so long I didn’t even remember/totally believe what truly just experiencing an emotion would mean. https://t.co/m6tNs91xE0

When people imagine happiness, they imagine a sugar-coated version of it. If they truly imagined it, it would by definiton feel completing. https://t.co/5sbzjmJkBl

It actually was so different to delight me, I wouldn’t really feel delight by the usual things people did. I thought that was it—someone doing this legibly nice thing that seems to make most people delighted—was also supposed to make me feel delighted, but it didn’t.

There really were other things that did make me feel actually delighted, though; I’ve been discovering what those are. https://t.co/NMplun3rqv

Every day, I just asked myself ‘hey what do u wanna do rn?’ And I am privileged and lucky enough to be able to do whatever the answer is. And over time | didn’t have to ask anymore. My body just told me https://t.co/uswDwgrgj5

So strange. To feel an emotion that feels embodied and True, instead of just optimal. https://t.co/bBx3uAKVTM

I didn’t understand what that meant for the first while of my life, because I didn’t feel real. I said what my problem-solving head said was optimal to say. https://t.co/35KoY2PGpy
