Amazing letter Sari. This distills so much of wisdom. I have gone thru some of these topics/observations with my friend. But it took us days/weeks to reach here. You've put them in one short post. Really well done.
“In fear mode, your brain will bend reality to meet your prior experiences and vulnerabilities.” I have never thought about how my fear shapes my reality in quite that way before. It’s such a helpful point.
The realities before us are vast and contradicting and endless. Fear coerces us to believe there’s only one reality and we better control it because the stakes are very high...! But reality isn’t so binary. It’s infinite. And better to stay loose and ride its current than assume the future looks like our past.
I’ve been thinking/writing about my own motivations for writing and I landed on a similar sentiment to Anna Quindlen’s words: that the best writing (in my opinion) doesn’t really say anything new or original at all. In most cases, it comes from an attempt to express something that’s been felt and articulated a million times before, just this time it’s seasoned with someone else’s unique perspective. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful as always. I will share this with my team. The most important part for me is that about patience. I've been struggling with this quality my whole life. It seems as if "falling in love with the process" is the antiode to inpatience.

Thanks for articulating this, I needed it!
This is gold: “I hope you focus less on what you achieve and more on who you become.” ⭐️
