What if?

So I just wonder, what would it look like for you if you let yourself just be you and did the things that matter to you without deciding that you're not doing them well enough or properly, or that someone else is so much better, you should just step out of the arena altogether. So that's what I'm thinking about. And I hope that this helps you think about it as well and maybe expand your perception of your possibilities. Have a great day

I think there's real value in modeling out there so that people can see that there's lots of different kinds of people doing lots of great things. And hopefully that diversity, that kind of modeling out there is going to inspire people to recognize themselves in the world. But to your last point, about what would it feel like if you just were you? I think we lose that sense of ourselves at some point. We start socializing as young people, and it could take a lifetime to get back

Geometry! What a perfect word choice.

Hey, DB, thank you so much for your really interesting response to my What If question. I particularly love the notion of geometry because, yeah, there's so many different angles that we can look at things from. And even though I was absolutely appallingly bad at geometry in school, I still appreciate the concept of it. And then you said something that I really took to heart because it's precisely how I feel about it
