A friend is starting a new therapist.
"I have to tell my life story all over again."
"How much do you think you'll get through?"
"About 1/4."
Our life story has 4 parts.
There's the 1/4 we tell, the 1/4 we tell under duress, the 1/4 we never tell, and the 1/4 we don't even know.

I’m a reader and reader of Raymond Chandler, always seeking to have my itch scratched by awareness of honor in a wicked world. @gregolear.bsky.social capture why here.
The good stuff
We didn’t run the country that way in 1939, we don’t run it that way in 2024, and 2025 looks like it will be a banner year for flashy well-dressed muggs. “It is not a fragrant world,” Chandler says in his essay, “but it is the world you live in.”
