wips
so like every writer I have a bunch of ideas that i seem to not be able to finish. maybe a little motivation might push me. so these are some of my writing that are almost finished. if there is a specific fic that you want to see lmk and it'll probably give me the motivation to actually finish and publish.
unwritten rule - joe burrow x head coach's lil sister (rookie joe burrow is told the most famous unwritten rule, do not date the head coach's little sister, but he is famous for not listening) *needs to be heavily edited*
spoiled - lando norris x reader (based on lando eating expired chicken on max's stream. reader got the ick and decided to do something about it) *just needs to be edited! I'll probably post it soon*
soft spot - max verstappen x reader (for days reader has been waking up with knots in their back, max has a solution to her problems) *i have the dialogue just need the bones*
rock me - aew!cody rhodes x fem!reader (reader and cody used to be very close. years have passed and now he has his own promotion. what happens when they are reunited at double or nothing) *iffy about this one, an old fic*
fearless - kelly severide x firefighter!reader (being fearless leads to reckless actions) *old fic that can be edited and be ready to go*
in love - jamie benn x fem!reader (jamie was never a relationship guy, fulyl focusing on his career. you enter as a new member of the stars team who makes him rethink about relationships) *needs to be edited*
Okay my biggest self indulgent one is a full fledge story. It's a f1driver!oc. This one I love to work on but it's a very detailed story. character is fully written out (name, age, ethnicity, backstory, family) I didn't give her a romantic lead yet, she has 4 drivers pinning for her. The way I would release this is not in timeline order, just little blurbs here and there to build the story and imagines to progress the story. if you are interested in seeing this lmk. I always add new things everyday.

stuck with me
December 1, 2022
Wyatt quietly walked out of his room being mindful to shut his door very quietly and he slowly walked to the room next to his and opened the door to Greysonâs room and closing the door behind him.
It was late at night and everyone else was sleeping but Wyatt had so much energy and was restless from the game he played a few hours ago.
He tried to sleep for the past hour, just tossing and turning until admitting defeat and got out of bed heading to Greysonâs room.
Wyatt has never been more thankful for a person than he is for Greyson, from the moment he met Greyson, Greyson has taken care of Wyatt and truly took him under his wing and showed him the NHL world.
Wyatt has always and will always think Greyson Hughes is absolutely beautiful and he is not ashamed to admit Greyson was the person Wyatt use to look up all the time on instagram and was the boy who made Wyatt realize he likes guys.
Wyatt and Greyson both lived in Toronto during the same time and played at the same arena for many years but being different ages they never ended up crossing paths.
But meeting Greyson and becoming roommates and teammates and eventually friends, Wyatt grew to care even more for Greyson, more than just being attracted to him.
And Wyatt knew the second Greyson smiled at him that Greyson would end up capturing his heart and Greyson has, and Wyatt is more than okay with that.
âOllie.â Wyatt softly whispered as he leaned over a sleeping Greyson, Wyatt felt a pinch of guilt for trying to wake up Greyson when he is peacefully sleeping.
Wyatt wants to just slide into Greysonâs bed and curl up to him but Wyatt doesnât have permission to do so and does not want to push Greyson and make him uncomfortable.
Greysonâs eyes fluttered open squinting at Wyatt, âWy?â Greyson sleepily mumbled sounding confused.
Wyatt cleared his throat softly trying to ignore the thoughts that ran to his head from Greysonâs voice, âCan i sleep next to you?â Wyatt hopefully whispered asking.
Greyson hummed his eyes shutting close once more and he lifted his arm up making his blanket lift and Wyatt beam before he slid into the spot next to Greyson.
Wyatt did not immediately curl up to Greyson even if he wished too.
âDid you come in here to lay all the way over there.â Greyson teasingly mumbled his eyes never once opening but he could feel how far away Wyatt was from him.
Wyatt flushed a soft pink but eagerly scooted closer to Greyson but apparently not enough because Greyson threw his arm over Wyattâs waist and pulled his as close as possible and burrowed his face into Wyattâs soft hair.
Wyatt made a suprised squeak but all but melted into Greysonâs protecting arms.
Wyatt toon a few deep breaths trying to find words to get his thoughts out.
âSssh, we can talk in the morning, sleep now.â Greyson softly mumbled rubbing Wyattâs back gently making him relax more and more into his arms.
Wyatt nodded and felt himself fall into a deep sleep in Greysonâs arms.
December 2, 2022
Greysonâs nose twitched as he felt something brush his nose, Greyson squinted his eyes open and remember Wyatt had joined him late last night.
Greyson nudged his nose against Wyattâs hair letting out a soft fond sigh.
Greyson has always been a good sleeper but having Wyatt in arms made his sleep last night become the best sleep he has ever had and he knows itâs all because of Wyatt.
Greyson wasnât scared to admit he has feelings for Wyatt and they have been slowly growing over the last few months, Greyson has never met someone who he has felt so comfortable with so fast.
He knows Wyatt feels something for him back, it is obvious by the way he flushes pink often because of Greyson and the way Wyatt stares at him with heart eyes.
Greyson has kinda just let their friendship develop not pushing that they both have feelings for each other and he has been more than content to just wait for Wyatt and kinda let him settle into his new life but Greyson has been thinking about confessing soon and then Wyatt came into his bed last night kidna giving him his sign he should confess.
Wyatt shuffled around nuzzling his head more against Greyson as he slowly started to wake up.
Wyatt blinked sleepily feeling a hand scratching his back and being held, He hummed happily and then realized it was Greyson holding him and smiled.
âMorning.â Greyson softly mumbled noticing Wyatt waking up.
âMorning.â Wyatt mumbled sleepily but happily, how could he not be happy by waking up in the arms of the boy he has been crushing on for years.
Wyatt just laid in Greysonâs arms for a good while enjoying the comforting touch and silence between them but he eventually lifted his head up resting his chin on Greysonâs chest
âSorry about coming in here last night.â Wyatt sheepishly apologized.
Greyson shook his head, âItâs okay, i donât mind.â Greyson knew that Wyatt has a hard time sleeping after being wired up from a game.
Wyatt smiled pleased and laid his head back down resting his cheek on Greysonâs chest still staring up at him.
Greyson tentatively brought his hand up to Wyattâs messy hair messing with his little strands.
Greyson and Wyatt just held eye contact as Greyson played with Wyattâs hair.
Greyson didnât realize he was slowly leaning in as he stared at Wyatt until their noses bumped each other.
Greyson eyes flickered between Wyattâs eyes and lips making sure there was no hesitation and took a deep breath before pressing their lips together.
Wyatt inhaled sharply, he had thought maybe they were about to kiss but having Greyson actually kiss him shocked him.
Wyatt desperately kissed him back bringing his hands up to hold Greysonâs face in his hands.
âWoah.â Wyatt mumbled in awe panting as they pulled away from each other.
Greyson smiled and rubbed his nose again Wyattâs cheek.
âCan we do that again?â Wyatt looked up at him nervously, he wasnât sure what he would do if he never got to kiss Greyson again, heâs been waiting long enough.
âWhenver you want love.â Greyson softly mumbled rubbing Wyattâs cheek reassuring.
âAs your boyfriend?â Wyatt added hopefully happily leaning into Greysonâs soft touch.
âYes. Youâre stuck with me.â Greyson softly teased making Wyatt beam happily.

back to immediately take back my adam praise from the last sdpn episode because he's laying into marner and rielly for not coming out to get skewered when the leafs play bad and saying they shouldn't even have letters for ducking the press and when jesse gives context on why the leadership core doesn't come out for every press conference since he has actually been going to games and practices as a reporter now that spdn is credentialed (because they don't have ten people come out for every media scrum, and they all take turns, and the players that the reporters did talk to after their last loss against the blues were actually more pertinent for the pieces people were going to write) he just doesn't seem to care since he thinks that media availability is the epitome of taking accountability for bad play or losses and that says everything to me about how bad it must be to be a leaf or a leafs fan. how do you know what the problem is and still participate in the problem
lmao well. goodwill lasted about a day. ill catch up on this episode in a sec but oh my god he is weird about the marner & reilly thing. it happened once during. i wanna say the playoffs? and he has never been able to let that go.
#I will say#leadership core probably should be taking the brunt of the media availabilities#esp when things are not working#remember when jamie benn tried to decapitate mark stone in a playoff game and then snuck away early to hide from the cameras#not incredible leadership#and youâd assume they picked alt captains based on their ability to#communicate & deal w these kinda things in a professional way#but for so many people this just turns into a reason to shit on marner#who. not one of My Guys by any stretch of the imagination#but give the kid a break damn. or just admit you donât like him & we can interpret your comments based on the context of#you just donât like him#and youâre constantly trying to come up w reasons to justify that#exhausting tbh

Hi cody which of the big names (or lesser known guys that are your blorbos) do u think will play for their team for their entire career and who do u think will leave? Tampa bay is on my hit list for dropping stamkos like that
ohoho this one is FUN... everyone is my blorbo im gonna go through every team and See...
the biggest difficulty in making this list is that like inevitably b/c of the Inevitable Passage Of Time the babies grow up and sometimes they grow up into like. diff ppl... like i imagine rn the sharks and hawks respectively want mack and bedsy to be with them for life... but is that Happening? it's too early to say ... bedsy seems like he might though. he's goodcanadianboy enough.
boston bruins: marchand and pasta are 100% lifers... mcavoy seems like they want him to be a lifer but he hasn't made up his mind yet.
buffalo sabres: if they make the playoffs within the next five years (BIG IF) then i can see one of power or dahlin sticking it out. but at this point i'm pretty sure the only thing that can save the sabres is a serious exorcism and i mean a SERIOUS one so i doubt this'll happen in truth
detroit red wings: larkin. duh.
florida panthers: barkov
montreal canadiens: n/a. see buffalo sabres but replace "power" with "caufield" and "dahlin" with "slafkovsky" . i mean i guess you can put arber on that list but mostly because his career isn't gonna be that long probably
ottawa senators: the one and only THOMAS CHABOT
tampa bay lightning: i WOULD have said stamkos until this offseason... fucking crasy... ok anyway here's my juice: vasy's back injury/surgery have meant he is no longer the goalie he was and i doubt he'll command much after this contract is over. i say 50-50 he leaves vs stays as a reasonable backup/tandem guy. kucherov Wants 2 Win and has a much lower tolerance for Bullshit than stamkos, which means if a competitive price is not being paid for him he will Just Leave. victor hedman is going to be a lifer though
toronto maple leafs: morgan rielly is the only one i know in my heart is a lifer, but only because a) jt was already an islander and b) willy and auston will probably play most of their reasonable careers as leafs and then have like 1-3 seasons somewhere else as ancient old men to Cup Chase One Last Time. don't ask about the other guy you know how i feel about jinxes
carolina hurricanes: n/a
columbus blue jackets: n/a
new jersey devils: n/a... they will try to keep at least 1 hughes but i think we have seen so little of the current devils era (hischier/hughes) that it's hard to say anything about their future atm. can you believe nico was only drafted the year after auston like they haven't gotten off the ground at ALL.
new york islanders: [squints in trying to name islanders]... actually a bunch of lifers looking at it. sorokin. anders lee. barzal if you're nasty. brock nelson. etc
new york rangers: chris kreider FER SURE, igor shesterkin FER MAYBE
philadelphia flyers: see devils re: brink of something new. they're going to try and keep tk forever though
pittsburgh penguins: do i REALLY have to say anything here
washington capitals: Do I Really Have To Say Anything Here
chicago blackhawks: was about to make another bad seth jones contract joke here before remembering he's already played on a different team. no further comment
colorado avalanche: natemac has made it pretty damn clear he wants to stay an av forever, because sidcros stayed a penguin forever. do what you will with that information
dallas stars: jamie benn definitely, but everyone else is too young to say something about or has been on other teams already. good luck with your jrob21 contract negotiations stars front office You Will Need It
minnesota wild: ...jared spurgeon...?
nashville predators: did you guys know puckpedia has the preds abbreviated as NAS and they're ahead of the devils. crazy. anyway roman josi and juuse saros are gonna be preds for life, and probably filip forsberg too
st louis blues: vlad tarasenko IN MY HEART...
winnipeg jets: hellebuyck and schiefele fer sure
anaheim ducks: because they've been trying to trade him for a decade and have been unsuccessful yet: john gibson
calgary flames: n/a
edmonton oilers: nuge + mcdrai also
la kings: doughty + kopi
seattle kraken: n/a
san jose sharks: logan couture
vancouver canucks: my hot take is nobody because quinn hughes is going to pull a mark giordano or jason spezza or perhaps even a chris tanev and play the last couple years of his career as a leaf. petey is gonna slut it up somewhere else later, brock is straight up going to leave as a ufa OR sign a short bridge and then leave as a ufa, and jt miller was a ranger
vegas golden knights: n/a

So, most the One Piece fans in my life have been discussing the live action series, and, surprisingly, most with a hopeful tone. Which is great because, seriously, I'm too old and close to death to deal with either of the following preemptive attitudes:
"Look, I know trailer footage is not only often unfinished but not even always what gets included in the final project but based purely off the smallest of moments contained in this purely commercialized content, I can definitely state with absolutely no doubt that due to minor detail, the whole thing sucks"
"This will be just like I imagined it including all the changes I would make to canon that have never once been hinged at by those in charge, I just know it's going to be not just as awesome as I have created in my mind but even betyeyr and there is absolutely no way they'd ever make the slightest change that would somehow immediately ruin the entire property retroactively for me!"
The fact that most the people I interactive with are taking a positive but grounded attitude instead of determinedly antagonist or unhinged optimism is just... Nice. Really, really nice.
Most our discussions regard general aesthetic and what we think these creative choices indicate for the show, but there has been one area where 95% of all feedback has been glowly positive, and that is the actors. Seriously, every sneak peak trailer reveal brings about more fan-gushing from the bleachers (related note, this means that any characters we haven't seen gets more and more nails bitten short. Like, why haven't I seen the Benn Beckman? This is actually really important to me.)
This has lead to a lot of excitement for potential future cast members, including from the boys at my work. Which.... They are definitely fans, there is no denying that, but like... I don't think of as "those kinds of fans" .
But I'm always happy to be proven wrong.
AnimeDub Fan Coworker: I've never seen a more perfect live action adaptation than Mihawk in the trailer. The word. The eyes. The facial hair. Like damn.
Manga/Anime Fan Coworker: The cast looks so fucking on. I know this will never get a season 2, but if it did, the absolute dream would be for Jamie Lee Curtis to play Kureha.
Me: Yes, please. She's on my list of Characters I Have To See In Live Action. It's Law (obviously), Kid & Killer but particularly Killer, Ace of course, Robin because ROBIN, and Kureha who, yeah, is on the list cuz I want JLC or equivalent.
AD Fan: You just went off about how Garp was too hot but are cool with Jamie Lee Curtis as Kureha?
Me: Yeah, because unlike Garp, Kureha is canonically smoking.
AD Fan: Agree to disagree.
M/A Fan: They'll probably go for no names again like they did for this cast, but dream casting would be Alexandra Daddario as Robin. Boom.
M/A Fan: *With absolutely no further promoting from me* Ooooooh I got another fake casting. This one's for Kid. Cameron Monaghan.
M/A Fan: He's played crazy before too. And he's really good at it. He was pretty much "the Joker" in the show Gotham. AND he was the gay brother on Shameless. So he can totally be pirate married to Killer!
Me: *Desperately trying to remember when I mentioned in my work chat - that includes a few non-geeks, like not just not OP fans but just straight up not up with geek culture - that Kid and Killer were Pirate Married, a phrase which is very much so mine.*
Me: *Decides it doesn't matter and just gives self a point to converting yet another normal fan straight boy around to the correct view of Kid and Killer's relationship.* Now we just need someone who can pull off the perfect 80 glam rock star AND NHL defense player and we have two more Supernoves cast and ready to go.
I don't know how I keep convincing these straight boys who have probably never read a fanfic in their lives to get behind Kid/Killer as canonical Pirate Husbands, but when one of the major considerations for fan-casting is, "would Mina find him suitable gay with Killer?" you know you've won. I'm not sure what exactly, but it's definitely a win.
#this post is mostly for me#and for everyone out there who has ever had that sweet victory of convincing a nonshipper/nonfanfic inclined individual#that despite all realistic canon expectations#two characters are just super gay for each other#hey the Good Omens fandom did it; all hope is not lost#Kid x Killer#They're pirate husbands ya'll#pirate husbands#I clearly use that phrase too often if my coworkers have picked up on it#I did for a while wonder if when someone repeated it back if they truly understood that I didn't just mean that they're loyal and crewmates#'Oh you mean 'pirate husbands' like Shanks & Benn or Roger & Rayleigh?'#As a matter of fact yes that is exactly how I meant it#In that I am directly implying all those characters be fucking. Each other.#(not all at once obviously.... though Shanks would probably be down for that.... maybe not with Roger. Unless timetravel. Then yeah 100%)#one piece#one piece live action#one piece as as family activity!#/work activity#one piece casting#eustass kid#killer one piece#MurderChild#Still having trouble with a solid ship name for these two#when the normies join the fun#PS: yes everyone else in the work chat hated us#Don't care got coworkers to admit Kid and Killer be married#It's a good day when your friends accept the gay#amusing musings

missed you
May 18, 2022
Livia rubbed her eyes leaning her head off the glass of the plane window. She was heading back home after the Stars had gotten out of the playoffs during game seven.
She was excited to be home and she did just get to see her parents and brother as they came out to see a few of her playoffs games but she was most exicted to see her best friend Wyatt, as she hasnât seen him since she played in Toronto in March but that was the only time she saw him since she left for Dallas in September. Itâs the longest they have ever went of not seeing each other.
Livia had seen Luke in January when she played the red wings but she only saw him that once since August.
Livia also hasnât seen her two best friends together and the three all being together in a long time and she truly misses the days she saw them everyday and spent all day together, she misses her boys and facetime can only do so much.
Livia stood up as the plane as landed and threw on her back pack and purse and grabbed her suitcase from the overhead and walked down the aisle of the plane.
She had a hoodie on and a hat so no one was recognizing her, while she does love the fans but sheâs not the biggest social person so itâs not something she loves all the time.
Livia walked through the airport and to the pick up lot where her parents told her they would be. She looked over and her mouth dropped in shock as she realized they werenât here to pick her up but Wyatt was.
âLivy!â Wyatt grinned widely seeing his best friend and the girl heâs been in love with since the first day of kindergarten.
Livia let out a giggle and hurried over to him she dropped her suitcase handle and quickly wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Wyattâs hands automatically wrapped around her and spun them around both of them laughing happily.
Wyatt gently set her back down on the floor and she looked up through her lashes and Wyatt was just in awe, he has always known sheâs absolutely beautiful but she seems to get more beautiful every time he sees her.
âHi.â Livia beamed at her best happily, her nose scrunching from her smile being so wide.
âHi.â Wyatt happily chuckled out just staring at her with a large smile.
Wyatt gently pulled her into another hug, ���I missed you Livy.â Wyatt whispered softly resting his chin on her shoulder and closing his eyes.
Wyatt hated this season and hated playing hockey with out his best friend and it was so odd to play on not be on the ice with Livia, he couldnât wait till he joined her in Dallas and they get to play together again.
âI missed you too.â Livia softly whispered back, She had missed Luke terribly when he moved away and stopped playing with Wyatt and her but not playing with Wyatt was like playing with out a hand and she hated how there was always a void where she wanted Wyatt to be, she didnât understand why she misses Wyatt more than she does Luke.
âCome on, letâs get you home Livy.â Wyatt smile couldnât have left his face since he saw her. He threw his arm around her shoulder and grabbed her suitcase. Livia smiled happily leaned her head on his shoulder as they walked and Wyatt leaned down pressing a soft kiss of the top of her head thatâs covered from her hoodie.

Do you have any current WAG that exhibited this behavior of following multiple players before getting your own? Considering the WAGS that are assumed for the public, we can see the pattern of just following other wags and some players related to your spouse, such as very close friends and etc... I imagine that fangirl behavior can be judged
Didnât Kate (Seguinâs fiancĂŠ) try with one of his teammates or a player in a different sport?
Jessica (Jamie Benns fiancĂŠ) used to hook up with Matthews. Emma MacDonald apparently was called a âbikeâ because everyone got to ride her (such a horrible name, I do not condone it). There definitely are girls that wanted to be a wag and would hookup with multiple players hoping one of them wanted to date.
A few players have even come out and said that they hate being asked about hockey outside the rink, so the best way to get their attention is to literally talk about anything else. And Wags are very hesitant to let girls in so it would be hard for one to get in if they were a crazy fan girl. I feel like players and other wags are pretty good at detecting those kind of people.

Reading List, Spring Sap double edition.
"You begin with what you know, and what you know changes." - Cheryl Strayed
[Image by Katie Benn]
*
"On the first day of spring I would forgive anything; the air ... smells like forgiveness wide-armed enough to raise up all of historyâs beloved dead. No one who ever went outside on a spring afternoon could really believe that there arenât second acts in everyoneâs lives." Helena Fitzgerald
"Awe has always been available to us. Itâs an artefact of our own attention, rather than a force that emanates from magnificent things. It is perpetually nearby, but we like to imagine that itâs far away, a place that we visit on once-in-a-lifetime holidays, rather than a practice that we can foster across a lifetime. Iâve tended to see it as a frippery, an unnecessary decoration on the edges of experience that I can safely afford to ignore most of the time. I no longer think thatâs true. Instead, I think that those vulnerable, ground-shifting encounters like awe, wonder, fascination and mystery are crucial to our survival." [Katherine May, The Guardian]
"I now kindly understand that a world which tells me not to mark my own skin is the world where outside opinion is more important than my choice, and prejudice has been carelessly applied. I believe that a body cannot be deemed inappropriate." [Corrie Foreman]
The Indelible Marks Of Apo Whang-Od, still tattooing at age 106Â [Audrey Carpio, Vogue Philippines] ... and her apprentice, Grace Palicas, on Instagram.
Tattoos are about change [Rachel Jepsen, The Cut]
"I agreed that something needed to give. I disagreed that the something needed to be my work." Excerpt from 'You Could Make This Place Beautiful' [Maggie Smith, The Cut] ... and in response, this incredible Twitter thread solicited by Isabel Kaplan, with stories of relationships which are the opposite. Â
Pet-Custody Agreements Are a Bad Idea [Ines Bellina, The Cut]
"I had sought permission my entire life to make choices; I had been well-behaved and studious as a youth, jumped through all the required hoops â academic, extracurricular and otherwise. But freedom was to be explored and exploited, I had now decided. These travels taught me that moving around wherever I liked was possible. And that I was always at home as long as I had a few necessary items: a journal, some blue jeans, a few ducats and, most of all, a sharp mind." Lessons from a life on the move [Jami Attenberg, The Guardian]
"'I think thereâs probably a misconception that the more you plan, the less joy you get from something,' Johnson said. Sure, some of her favorite days are the unplanned ones, she said. But sheâs found that those sorts of days can only be fully appreciated if youâre already created the space â and gotten the things done â to enjoy them." The case for planning your free time" (at least a little) [Madeleine Aggeler, The New York Times - this is a free link]
PSA: Some airlines will sell you a "couch" on long haul flights - that's three seats in a row in Economy at a price that's actually affordable, so you can sleep flat. This is potentially game-changing.
Why are we so fascinated by super-organised homes? [Amelia Tait, The Guardian]Â
âI donât know what I think except that I donât think any of us has to have a firm opinion about what it means to be a woman.â On a hysterectomy [Anna Holmes, The New Yorker]
To Accept My Chronic Condition, I Needed to Grieve the Life That Could Have Been [Carolyn Todd, SELF]
"Elements of my character I used to think of as my personality are gone: intense sentimentality, worrying about everything, moroseness. So what is personality, and what is symptom?" Who Am I Without My Depression? [Imogen West-Knights, Vogue]
Name and shame, a column by Emma Forrest [The Guardian]
Shades of grey in Bilbao [Juan Navarro, The London Review of Books]
The people who still use a London A-Z map [The Londonist]
"I always felt [Nemesis] was a missed opportunity to create a story and play a story line that had a fitting and proper conclusion to it. None of us knew that was going to be our last outing. So there was always, at least for me, a sense of a missed opportunity, something unfulfilled. That ship had sailed. Two decades have passed. I had long since given up on any hope of a conclusion as satisfying as this one is." - LeVar Burton âStar Trek: Picardâ Gets the âNext Generationâ Band Back Together [Sopan Deb, The New York Times]
Patrick Stewart will look great forever [Caity Weaver, GQ]
The peerless Natasha Lyonne on what surprises her, at 43: "The only surprise is how false the bill of goods is that weâre sold as young women. Weâre supposed to be terrified of anything after 17 or 21. So itâs a revelation to discover what a lie that was. The truth of the matter is, itâs way better over here. Iâm sure any woman in her 40s is gonna tell you, thatâs when it all starts clicking, because you get to let go of so much concern about what other people think, and you get to focus on what you care about. And, of course, life being that funny karmic beast that it is, as soon as you let go of certain things, those are the very same things that come to you."
