"There are gifted people everywhere turned off by the relentless pursuit of external validation. And failure, in the eyes of others, may represent freedom for the individual.”
Loved it as usual! Currently travelling throughout Latin America and finding the irony of long distance long term travel is it’s such an internal battle and estimation of your energy- body, mind, spirit. This was helpful in getting me to remember I don’t need to be highly stimulated and hitting the perfect tourist/backpacker/journalist experience in every city or place I go to.
Rosie, A wonderful piece, filled with your always spot-on insights. I love that you listen to your self--and temper what you take in. Thank you, also, for your recommendations. My sister, Barbara (10th of 10)--a gifted person as you described-- just wrote a book, Joy Falls, and is trying to figure out how to market it. And then Dan's link!! I sent it to her immediately.
This resonated a lot. Lately I’ve been realizing that some of my most impactful (positive) pivots have come from sitting up and deciding, hmm I don’t have to do this. Thanks for writing ~
I went to the University of Oklahoma with Anthony Kim. We were assigned to the same project group in our Art Therapy class our last semester, along with his best friend who became his professional caddie. Fascinating to read about the journey he’s been on since then!
