tldr (tim reilly) (tidrtimreilly)

How much $bracky would you need to hold to not feel "sidelined"? (This is a genuine question, not an airdrop bait. I'm interested in the psychology of feeling sidelined vs not. Bc it seems to depend on a number of different factors.)

l've settled on my favorite Life Advice: "Siccome una giornata bene spesa dà lieto dormire, così una vita bene usata dà lieto morire." "As a hard worked day gives pleasant sleep, a well worked life gives pleasant death." - Da Vinci (Notebook) I've always thought this was a fun little ditty. The unlock for me is that if you begin to really accept and understand that your death can actually be pleasant (it is indeed pleasant to look back on your work, and also to be released from it), this awareness lightens your days. Happiness is the lightness of heavy work. It's a strange trick of nature, how being afraid of death makes us so weak in the knees, when the one thing we need to escape that fear is go out bear weight with them. But that's why it's great to help each other to lift things - nature gave us that too.
