Thanks for the reference to the Maslow pyramid. I looked it up and found it instructive for self reflection. I really like how your articles refer so honestly to your state of mind, and then use metaphors and a spectrum of references that add additional coherence and flavor (and potential exposure to the reader to these other things). Of course, I’m sure many readers have experiences that makes your narrative relatable, even if not directly so.
I do want to share that when I researched Abraham Maslow and his pyramid, there was another scholar who Wikipedia deemed as a person of interest: Victor Vroom. 🏎️ I’ll judge that man by his name, and I’ll give him an A+ once I get to the paper work.
“The strange thing about being in my forties is that no longer being young feels like a constant revelation. Like I’m a mermaid looking down at my new legs for the first time, over and over and over.” Yes yes yes
this is beautiful, and so is Tyler's music! thanks for introducing us to him. i am obsessed with going to concerts and love your reflections about the power of live music, fully agree.

“I no longer care how a stranger I’m paying gets my kid to sleep, as long as it’s not against the law. So…. who wants to babysit?!” This made me lol
