When you are jealous of other people, you forget there is a place in the world for you, that you occupy a real and legitimate place.

It's fair to say I'm missing out on something—but also that I might prefer to miss out. [...] I don't have to live every possible life, or to experience that particular love. I know I cannot hide from life; that life will give me experiences no matter what I choose. Not having a child is no escape from life, for life will always put me in situations, and show me new things, and take me to darknesses I wouldn't choose to see, and all sorts of treasures of knowledge I cannot comprehend. —Sheila Heti, from Motherhood (2018)

actually it didn’t, the trees in this region grow like that because of the salt content in the strong southerly winds that burn off growth on the windward side. so still alive! just growing sideways
