I fear we’ll never know our “authentic selves” because once we think we do, we inevitably change. I feel like we only know ourselves in retrospect but only as an old friend. Love this thought provoking piece!!

Such a good point!! I love the way you phrased that - “as an old friend” - really speaks to all the cycles we go through as humans, both ourselves and our loved ones. Thank you for your equally thought-provoking comment ❤️

So here for the authentic you! Your authenticity is a gift. YOU are a gift. I'm also obsessed with these little comics. And I 100% pretend I'm a TED Talk-er. Basically I relate to all of this. You rock.

Maryn!! Your words never fail to light up the (virtual) room!! :) Thank you so much, always. Feel the exact same way about YOU! Ahhhhh so glad someone else does the TED Talk thing, it's truly a habit I've yet to shake (but hey, sometimes it's helpful and maybe we're practicing/manifesting to be future speakers!!)
