I've been thinking about this alot lately, especially in the sense of therapy that continually seems to throw me deeper into looking and not listening. I've been contemplating once a month sessions, or, ad hoc, because in a sense I feel like those sessions are decreasing my personal understanding of me. Albeit when I started I desperately needed some help and guidance, but there is a point where I keep asking "why do I keep showing up here?" Listening to my writing, my photography, nature, the streets, my dog, and my daily rhythms sometimes help me feel more like myself than a 50 minute long dive into larger, complex, knotty questions. Glad I'm not the only one like this. Really grateful for this piece.
Two kinds of introspection
