Another incredible post, Chris. In particular, your exploration of the Hemingway bridge - and your encouragement to use the technique to overcome challenges - is just brilliant.
Love all this, Chris. We can't keep looking outside for what we want to feel inside; we have to grow our own. And, yes, we all have our own burdens and struggles...and yet I meet people who have it pretty good who are just determined to be jerks. They must be exhausted. I'll have to check out the film when I get in tonight. Thanks for always showing me something new! xo
I'd never considered applying writing advice to life, but these instructions for adapting Hemingway's bridge to ongoing adversity? A lightbulb moment for sure.
Dealing with high-stakes, stressful situations can easily take over everything else in your life. This offers a totally reasonable way of reintroducing a semblance of balance during challenging stretches.

Aw, thanks Rebecca!
