i get it now
(Hegel’s Philosophy of Right, Introduction, last paragraph of section 22 to first paragraph of section 24) Freedom comes through the deep understanding of one’s subjectivity in relation to universal existence. Freedom is one’s awareness of interdependence which has limitless scope.

Up my spine at Passo Falzarego
the hardest part isn't even the being alone - it is that i know i have all this love fossilizing in me, a pearl. a plum stone. it's that i want to find someone to fissure it out into; my palm an open cup.
i know one must love oneself first. i know friendships are real love. i know i know i know. but i also - so timidly - i keep picturing my life as being with someone. to hand them my heart and have them say ah, this is the kind of thing i was dreaming of.

I am a mosaic of everyone I have ever known and loved and touched and I find fragments of them in my playlists and how I make my tea. we may not know each other any more but we will stay connected like this. I hope a fragment of me is with you too.
