I have feuded with folks in my past. Some for no good reason, save my own anger (which is nothing but a stupider version of insecurity).
And then, I have connected with these folks back again - once I have realized the folly of my own idiocy.
I was talking to one such person today. And he said something very simple in the context of everyday talking, that he values "personal intellectual freedom" over money or "status".
I have been grappling with this push-pull forever. But with the affirmative clarity and nonchalance that he said it, in the context of me pushing a possible "status" deal to him - made me flinch....and at that moment taught me a simple life lesson.
Freedom is all that matters.
Thank you dear friend.
