Great read as always machi! Loved the musings on what control looks like in our lives. Here’s one of favorite quote on control by Gandalf
“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
Badass that you’re going to hit 24 newsletters this year. Congrats machi 👏🏽
I love that quote by Harmut Rosa. His concept of “resonance” has been by North Star this year. The less screen time, the less information I take in, the more resonance I feel.
would you believe me if I had that exact thing in mind when writing that?? I was debating on taking the other side as a stance: "we can control everything, even the weather... aka this world is limitless" blah blah hahaha

Love that quote.. less worry about what's possible to control and more time spent controlling what we can.

Just recently found his work, going to dig deeper now👀
"We have no authority over the weather, for instance."
We do control the weather, so as to ensure the Colorado River has enough flow to reach you down in Austin ;) https://cwcb.colorado.gov/focus-areas/supply/weather-modification-program
