Thank you for writing this Jet and for sharing your wisdom. There were a lot of things that resonated with me here, and I'm sure with so many others. I especially felt this: "I know consistency is important, but there’s no scenario that I imagine creating through burnout to be meaningful. Half-baked ideas, insincere ideology and mid prose is all I can expect from that kind of output." And this too: "I think those of us who choose the unpredictability of creative expression are often met with the limitations of the material world."

Thank you for letting us have a glimpse of this inner world, this dissonance that I believe we all grapple with (I surely do) and for stating it so clearly and so urgently. I certainly trust you. Can’t wait to read more. 👏🏾☺️❤️
