i made a venn diagram about how i feel about my waking life vs. my sleeping life 5 things overlapped between the waking & sleeping: possibilities, creativity, information, connection, & adventure other than these 5 things, the differences were quite stark. which taught me that i associate waking life w/ pressure, noise, strain—which begged the question: what is my waking life for? the answer was simple, like a haiku. a clear focal point to navigate distractions that obstruct what’s true
