Thank you Sarah for your honesty and vulnerability. It takes courage to move in the world this way. To move with integrity regardless of the cost. And that is always the right choice in my view. Thank you for speaking up, asking hard questions, holding complexity, and now, taking the time to discover and follow the path that is most nourishing for you. Because that is what the world needs you to do. Follow your delight. Claiming joy is a revolutionary act. And so necessary as the challenges of our time continue to unfold.
I just got to the part of Farm and other F Words where you mention the follow-up book and I immediately started searching for it. I came across this post and I will say that first of all, seeing that you don’t want to be a content creator (or whatever) is awesome and refreshing. Secondly, your book has blown my mind in so many ways! I didn’t realize the fallacy of farming that I held in my mind, the “following” of farm content creators, and the socialized norm of pity for wealthy business owners our culture has fostered (as well as myself.) I look forward to reading your books and articles. I hope that the new you finds beautiful inspiration in your community and in nature.
I really enjoyed your extended use of passing on as a metaphor for maturing, or just changing as you get older. "Best wishes for your future endeavors," and now I'll go back and read your book and old posts. Since I found this one through a more recent post, I guess you're partly back!
