This week's heartquakes
what wins the fight—two mockingbirds or a crow? getting into something like a "flow" state with wholesome gaming streams or social media arguments? spontaneous out-of-state visits from friends or hide at home in the quiet? saying no to people pleasing for the nth time in a row or saying yes just to break the chain? writing to write or letting yourself run all out of words? consuming more or creating more? chasing rainbows and birds in the rain or staying dry in the car? experiencing impostor syndrome or settling with safe, easy choices? relying on 10-year-old muscle memory to slowly but surely remind you of your love of the game or just accepting that you're not at your peak anymore so that's that? following your curiosity or quashing it in favor of all the things you "need" to do, none of which get done anyway? growing angry at the way-too-wasted people standing in front of you at a concert or worrying about whether or not they'll get home okay?
