“You cannot make everyone think and feel as deeply as you do. This is your tragedy … because you understand them, and they do not understand you.”

The Past and The Future...(19 July 2026)

Looking back on your past can be an interesting experience.

Last year at this time I was about to embark on an experience that would plunge me into sudden darkness for the rest of 2025.

I still don't want to go into the details of what happened there, but I have learned a lot about what I should be doing and what I shouldn't be doing from that experience.

I learned that I should be more careful about the people I put myself around. I should also do a better job with listening to my instincts.

I also learned that I should be more willing to change my behaviors for the better. Just because I was doing something a certain way for a long time doesn't mean that I need to keep doing it that way. If I want to get better, I should take the advice that I am being given and use it to improve myself.

Life is an ongoing project to improve yourself for the better in whatever situation you are in. Not everything is going to be perfect, but you have to be willing to learn something from it.

Also, some people just won't like you. That's also okay.

If they don't like you for some mysterious reason, that's their problem, not yours. Try to find a way to either avoid them or separate yourself from them and move on.

Their jealousy and envy of you is not your problem, it's theirs and theirs alone.

Keep living your life with the people you want to be around. Let the person that hates you live their own life.

Karma will come through with them soon enough.

"You're not the asshole whisperer! Let them go."

It's okay to think of someone you loved in the past.

But don't forget why you left them behind.

That relationship isn't over, it's complete.

Keep driving down that road...🛣️(12 July 2026)

Sometimes you have to realize the past should remain in the past.

Whether something happened in your childhood or the past year, some things should stay in the past.

I'm not saying that you should forget your past, but you should keep the lessons you learned from that past at the forefront of your mind.

But remember: try not to spend too much time in that past. There's a reason you left it behind: that reality no longer services your current needs.

A little bit of nostalgia is fine, but nostalgia is a very strong drug.

Use those lessons you learned from your past to move into your possible future.

Don't be afraid to leave the past behind. There might be a brighter future waiting for you just up the road.

"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin

Naming what happened to you might not fix it. But it shifts something in you, the culture, the dread in all that silence.

For those of you not familiar with The Marginalian, I want to introduce you to an incredible writer and curator of art, thought and meaning through this great little piece on the sage icon Baldwin.

Much love.

healing does not require pretending it never happened.

[steveneveral]

This is very important. Many people think “It’s in the past” is an excuse for their actions and decisions.

Here’s what they forget: Forgiveness is for accidents. Forgiveness is for “oopsies”. It’s NOT for decisions. It’s NOT for chosen behavior.
