one thing that frustrates me (and there are SO many things) which means attraction and aversion and maya and karma. but now i forgot what frustrates me.

oh. ... is when i read good writing i always feel like i could have written that because i have thought that very same thing... but it doesn’t seem like i am as good at saying it so interestingly. some people just have a certain flair. maybe everyone does.

since i was a kid, i’ve been good at drawing. other kids would always love my stuff and ask if they could have it and if i would draw things for them or teach them how to draw. i would be like, “YOUR drawing is cool, too” and they’d say—it’s just a stick figure or whatever. and i’d say, yeah but YOU drew it and it is unique and true and i didn’t draw it nor could i ever. everyone’s drawing is a unique expression of them
