You can hear the first drizzle on the roof before you can feel it on your skin.
[The Mastodonian Monk, Apocryphal Remarks, Remark 32]

"Freedom isn't about some great escape or the pusuit of some grand purpose. It is about letting go of the need for both."
Profound reflections on The Way, thank you.
#Zhuangzhi and #Laozi: these texts have accompsnied me through many crises in my life. They helped me realise myself as part of a flow that crushes all self-set targets and mission statements, a flow that demands open-minded attention to the potentialities of the given moment: the "incipiencies" (chi) of the I-Ching.
You are right to contrast such attentiveness with the pressure in corporate social media to build one's self as a "brand".
May I draw a parallel to Fediverse culture? At its best, it supports quiet, non-viral exchanges of mutually resonating posts, where each participant picks up some small facets of the world that they previously had blocked out. The antithesis of "influencer" culture, where each participant pushes their own unchanged vain goals
