I love this post! Joan didion I think said that she likes to reread old notebooks so that the old versions of herself don't wake her up at 3:00 in the morning. I've been wearing a clown nose to work as a doctor, to keep playfulness alive in my work persona. It definitely took some courage at the beginning and it's not like I'm playing all the time but it's a good reminder to bring one's whole self to work. Definitely conscious of getting into calcified rolls and I hope that my friends from different phases can keep me alive
Beautifully serendipitous that you posted this morning! I've been working on that piece inspired by these thoughts and just popped over to check whether this was up.
