James Sexton

I've got people in my life who love me and who I love.

I get to spend another day interacting with them in some fashion.

I get to eat delicious food and breathe clean air.

These are...

But again, the machine is constantly telling me that I'm doing it wrong and that there's other things I should be chasing.

And look, I get it.

It's cool to chase other things and stuff like that, but come on, man.

Come on.

Every single thing you own, some points can be on the junk heap.

Doesn't mean anything.

What really means something, I believe, is the deep connections and love we feel.

When you look back on your life, it's just a series of moments where you felt loved.

and where you loved someone.

Like it's everything, it's everything.

Like I'm a divorce lawyer.

Like people imagine me to be like the grim reaper of love and marriage.

Like, and fundamentally, like I think I'm the total opposite of that.

Like I am, being around endings has made me so unbelievably grateful for the core thing, which is love and connection.

To feel love, because I think our biggest fear

is that we're not worthy of love, that we don't deserve love, that the people who love us, they don't really know us.
