"reclaiming the inner artist, breaking down hierarchies and occasionally getting away with broken grammar..." Such powerful tools to liberation from self, especially for aspiring writers. I'm always learning something new from reading you, Natasha. Here's another gem, something that contradicted my own beliefs: "...happiness seems to be quite underrated, actually. It's the one thing we are forever postponing as we nervously train ourselves to become disciplined, useful and employable people, never quite sure when it is okay to just be. To do nothing, to recover from being tired and anxious. We also confuse happiness with the acquisition of things. Like I write in the book, an important lesson of life is that there is no ‘formula’ for happiness — “not love, not success, not children and not even pasta." BIIIIIIIIGGGGGG learning formula here :)
