Speaking in the context of satisfying your emotional needs/desires
Getting older and shit; realizing that I life in the suburbs sounds terrifying to me, but it’s what most of the people in my life are working towards

In that context, do you mean healing yourself or others? Both?
It’s nice to hear either way though.
I’ve been working on my mental health a lot lately and I’m trying to heal from a lot of what happened to me. But there’s the weird perfectionism that wants to see me fully healed before I can move on with my life. And maybe I just need to move on with my life. Healing 100% isn’t going to happen to me right now, not that I would know what that would look like. And ultimately, that isn’t my purpose and maybe it should be at a threshold, like ‘healed enough’ so I can do whatever my purpose is.
Alternatively, as a leftist, I think a lot about my privilege and my responsibility to make the world a better place. I guess, ‘if I have the energy to heal others then I should try’. But that’s also not necessarily my purpose. My purpose would be whatever it is I’d have if I thought other people were okay enough.
It’s good food for thought
The “weird perfectionism” is real, for everyone nowadays, I feel.
But yeah, good food for thought.
