We’ve rebranded “existing” as “healing.” If you’re not actively processing something, you’re “stagnating.” If you’re not in a state of constant growth, you’re “avoiding your wounds.” It turns your life into a hospital ward where you’re both the patient and the nurse, and the shift never ends.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my life treating my personality like a bug-ridden piece of software that just needed the right patch. You know the vibe.
