The plunge

As of today I have committed to freelance writing full-time. With respect to organ building, I've been off work since before Christmas with no prospect of steady employment within a reasonable time frame.

Thanks, Bill. I can hardly begin to explain what a difference it makes having Danny around. I believed I needed to be independent and worked hard at being okay on my own, but I guess it was more difficult than I realized. This reminds me of how my mom and I were constant companions. We baked, played games and talked, a lot of the same things Danny and I like to do together. Now is the first time since leaving home I've had this quality of companionship. I'm going: "So this is how it feels to not be lonely." We both need solitude, just as Mom and I did, so nobody gets cramped. This gives me great hope I'm finally in the right space to develop my creative practise. It's a little unsettling to discover I need somebody so much, but I guess that's life. I can view it as a weakness or simply a characteristic.

I don't think it's a weakness at all, it's actually a skill. We're mostly wired to be social animals but look how many people can't find a way to live constructively with someone else.
