Thanks man. It’s insane how having a kid can change your perspective or focus. Like, yesterday I’ve been watching a crying two year old trying to figure out how to put on socks for 15 minutes and it was legit a beautiful and intense experience. I didn’t expect I would ever say that about watching someone failing to put on socks. (Today it worked for the first time!)
And somehow not giving a fuck in other parts of life where you used to give a fuck is so crass. I’m one of those people who cannot make a phone call to make a dentist appointment. But if it’s about my kid? Hand me the phone. I also am too tired now to give a crap about tiptoeing around issues or keeping my mouth shut when something is legitimately wrong.
As for work, I doubt I’ll go back to what I’ve been doing before. I’ll gladly take a pay cut but if I’m giving my child away to go to work I’m not going to do this for some bullshit job with no meaning.
