limerence is such a special, liminal feeling. it’s a portal between the place we are and the place we hope to be https://t.co/wkyu9Q6ZAn
one of the people who was most proud of me, she would have been proud of me for this too. she would have considered it part of the universe of me. the same way i consider the great schemes and jealousies of my preschoolers part of their universe too
it would simply, obviously be part of my/their ambition https://t.co/QNZcu0s6qP
it turns out feelings are not so much a problem when there is an appropriate container to in parts encourage and contain them i haven’t really had one for feelings like this besides "problem-fix someone not liking me"
it’s something i saw at the preschool all the time. did someone stub their toe? spill their water and feel kind of dumb about it? you could almost see the charge of energy build up in their body. some would completely try to arrest it. some would cry
@AskYatharth Do you have the opportunity to help them deal with that stuff? Sounds kind of tough because there are a lot of kids in the same room, and I don't know the specifics around the teaching position too (what you're required to do, time allotted etc.)
