Superb piece, G. And that Kierkegaard quote is the fulcrum of it all.

I once heard someone say, "What you resist, persists".

And with this piece you've illuminated for us all why enduring creation requires friction.

I enjoyed every word and I'm looking forward to next weeks edition.

To steal from a phrase I was taught in the military, “there are those who run from friction and those who run towards it.” It’s a far better life to cultivate the strength to face the resistance. You’re doing great work, both facing your own resistance and sharing about it for others. Thanks for writing this week’s newsletter
