Now that you mention it, it really is, isn’t it? Funny how actual work can turn into metaphor without even trying. I’ll take that as a very nice compliment. :) <3
Title caught me and it didn’t disappoint. I really love working with wood and the smell of cutting into it. I love the way you wrote it! Ty for sharing :)
There is such a raw, physical truth in the way the project finally stands tall and finished just as the person who built it has completely fallen apart ✨
Thank you so much, Brandi. That person is definitely me. There’s something oddly true about finishing a project at the exact moment it finishes changing us. I really appreciate you seeing that. <3
Yay! A nice metaphor for the work we do.

I love how beautiful this and , such raw honesty in this piece ♥️🙏🏼
Thank you so much, Aaliya. I wanted it to come from a real place, so hearing that the honesty reached you means a lot to me. <3
The thing got built.
Not the way it looked
in the mind.
But the mind's version
was never going to stand
in actual weather.
