This is wonderfully written and very affirming. I did the chat gpt “what’s your impression of my instagram” trend thing for my private instagram and it said that it looked like a “confusing assortment of random interests.” And that’s the story of my life😭
This was particularly affirming. Made me realize i've never really been scared to confuse other people because i've always thought the only person Im supposed to make sense to is myself.
Adored this and it really did resonate. I swear… I feel like I’ve been told my academic advisors and all the “adults” in my life time and time again to specialise, to narrow down my path, to define my next few years in a neat and digestible way. Honestly, I’ve only just woken up to the fact that it’s perfectly okay to contain multitudes and not just contain multitudes but also pursue it as well.
Love this! It’s so true and important to sit with our own confusion which as you say is necessary otherwise why else would it be present. And maybe journeying through the confusion will take us to a space that is clear or perhaps clearer to some degree. Great share ⭐️ Time to remove the shame that comes with the word confusion and just simply embrace it
I always love reading/ listing to your message they have really helped me get through my art block while being away from school. On Valentine’s Day this year I had a revelation similar to this that all the pieces of my intersect make me whole and denying that makes me fragmented. That all of these interest that seem contradictory to societal standards CAN and ARE being experienced in one vessel.
Well said. I do respect people who find one narrow interest to write about and do it well (like "why there's not enough housing in Vancouver"). But that could never be me. My interests take me from Haitian Vodou to analytical Marxist philosophy to the end of the universe, so I'll write about all three.
