Skype calls with my bro @prestonsam was a much-needed distraction tonight. Me: “I don’t want to study anymore.” Preston: “Don’t say I didn’t warn you so.” I’m supposed to be the older, wiser one. #brotherhood #ohana #family #communication #Skype #potd #studytime #conversations #studybreak
After a long day of studying and working yesterday, I’m glad I’ve got friends who put up with my randomness over on Snapchat. They help bring the fun out of life. Thank you.
新年快乐 from the trio.
How do you get from connection to isolation? You end up isolated if you don’t cultivate the capacity for solitude, the ability to be separate, to gather yourself. Solitude is where you find yourself so that you can reach out to other people and form real attachments. When we don’t have the capacity for solitude, we turn to other people in order to feel less anxious or in order to feel alive. When this happens, we’re not able to appreciate who they are. It’s as though we’re using them as spare parts to support our fragile sense of self.
