This was so brilliant and I am so grateful to you for writing it. Could quote from every paragraph!

You’re identifying something that I’ve been struggling to name for a while myself with regards to hunger, success, and how it’s felt to watch acquaintances and colleagues get hands for hoisting out of the pit while hoping I might get one and then having to live with that never really happening … then the recalibrations of work, spirit, and mood one makes to keep going. Thank you so much. So good.

I hear you, loud and clear,as someone who can’t be cheery and chatty on cue. I just wanted to get the work done a lot of the time.
