This is when you realize that the role and game you’ve playing…no longer feel like joyous play but instead feels like a hollow grind. It’s when you can finally see the game you’ve been playing because you’re seeing it objectively from the outside for the first time. That’s when you realize it’s time for a new role and a new game to play.
Unpopular opinion: Sometimes you need to exhaust a pattern in order to touch right into the core of it. Until there is nothing left but to look at it. And you see it all clear as daylight – everything you do is a furious attempt not to feel.
