Cartoon from the poem of Amanda Palmer, and wish for the new year:
“you can do nothing.
or you can do something.
if you do something, you will be told you are doing it imperfectly.
you will be scolded for getting the tone wrong, the sentiment wrong, the wording wrong, or the timing wrong.
do it anyway.
do it anyway.
keep doing the things.
the only alternative is to do nothing, and nowadays that’s exactly what nobody needs.
keep doing.
get it wrong. get it wrong. get it wrong.
and keep going. the enemy of progress is perfection. keep going. keep doing. “
Thank you Amanda! Lots of love.
