an ambition or an outcome.
I just do it because I think it's fun or because it's like a problem that I haven't solved yet or a story I haven't told or questions I haven't asked.
There's an anecdote in the book.
My mom called one morning and she was talking about my niece and nephew.
And my nephew is a bit older and he was struggling because the attention of my niece was getting a lot more.
And my mom, very...
very harmlessly was like, oh, you know, you had a hard time when the boys were born.
I was like, no fucking shit, mother.
Obviously I did.
And she was telling me this anecdote.
And it was painful to hear.
It was about how I was crying without words, needing attention.
And my crying was making the boys cry.
And so what made that moment easier was for me to go to my room.
At the time when all these memories started coming back, and it's wild how the psyche holds these memories in a bank.
They're related to one another.
And the second that one of them comes out, it's like a tidal wave.
And then we've held them from ourselves because they hurt us.
But when we start to actually say, I'm going to be here, I'm going to hold them, not going to judge, not going to freak out, let's do this.
All of a sudden, the stories and the memories start presenting themselves and we're able to hold them without judgment because I can't imagine having three kids under the age of four.
