Letters From TC: Sunday's Lunch & The Bigger Picture
Some days I'm a bowl of red potatoes, dressed with a sweet aioli. Other days I'm far more traditional, like a bowl of cabbage roll soup. As of late, I find myself being both.
It may seem as though I'm just trying to figure out a clever way to describe my Sunday lunch as more than just lunch, however it was so delicious that I feel I have somewhat of an obligation to do so, shoutout to The Farmstand! Now before you opt out of listening to me draw more parallels between my life and cooked vegetables, consider the bigger picture. My point is that I never have been and never desire to be just one thing.
Singularity is both limiting and terrifying. The pressure to be one thing is what held me back from loving myself wholly and unconditionally for so many years.
Of course, the other side of this is living a life of pluralism, which is what I have chosen. I want to emphasize that even though this is what I have chosen, sometimes being all that you are isn't any easier than being a part of who you are...
The silver lining? I'm glad you asked.
Good things never come easy, and I have decided that all that I am, along with all that you are, make up a long list of very, very good things.
Wishing you all a great week!
-T.C.
