keeping the little promise

hello beautiful human.

i am in builder mode at the moment and almost didn't find the time to send you a brief hello.

that little voice that says, they won't miss your silly little email, it's ok.

but it's not about if you read or not, it's about keeping the promises that you made to yourself.

so let's just keep it simple. i will send a much greater update next week from some projects i am working on.

curations of the week

listened

The Extreme Crisis of Young Women — Freya India

Freya India and Chris Williamson on what the internet is doing to young women. Identity as performance, relationships filtered through platforms, and the strange pressure to turn every feeling into content. Worth it for the parts where they name the incentives instead of pretending this is just an individual willpower problem.

audiobook

Bringing Home the Dharma — Jack Kornfield

The core idea: you don't need a monastery. Awakening happens in ordinary life, exactly as it is. Kornfield spent 40 years practicing before writing this.

read

Sophie's World — Jostein Gaarder

A philosophy portal dressed as a novel. Sophie starts receiving strange letters asking the impossible questions: who are you, where did the world come from. Reading it again before sleep because it lets the brain wander without becoming another screen.
