Thalia drops a bag of truffles into their cart. “These are sooooo yuhhhhm-eee!”
“No.” Nia puts them back on the shelf.
“Making good for us choices…” Calliope pops a piece of sugar-free spearmint into her mouth, “is tough, and… worth it.”
Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.
~Napoleon Bonaparte
A note from LoveLetterist:
Fresh starts
which can happen at any time
but trend in January
are filled with possibilities.
What stays?
What goes?
Freedom to choose is...
difficult
and
precious.
I read another Substack writer’s thoughts on resolutions to start a new year. Which often quickly dwindle then disappear! And she in part rhetorically asks what we are calling attention to and how we hope the world sees us. I think you’d agree that such resolutions should be important to ourselves. Not a display for the world!
