Post was edited. Go to sleep.
I wish I was brave enough to be good at something.
Trying is scary because you might fail.
What does failing look like?
When I think of failure I imagine falling down.
Physically. On my face.
It's painful. Oh, it hurts.
Anyone who does anything with virtuosity is crazy.
How can you be so meticulous with this one thing.
It's as if they are fascinated by the thing they are good at, therefore the hard work to learn it fully is exciting to them. They are more patient with themselves than I could ever be. Forgiving themselves for failing and looking like a fool. A fool to whom? Who cares? It's embarrassing. It's hard to slow down and get it exactly right. Their processing time is faster than mine so it seems effortless on their part, but they had to slow down their hyper-speed minds to get it right. They're just like vampires, they move faster than our mere mortal eyes can witness or minds comprehend. It is incredibly hard to focus on one single thing when there are a world of things going on. Those Virtuosos thrive on focus and connection. Patience and forgiveness. I know, I just described the perfect relationship. In theory. And still they have room for so much more.
What even is this post?
I have to stop smoking weed and listening to 90's music in the wee hours of the morning. It's making me nostalgic for livejournal-ing. #gotosleepdotgif
