[00:02.281] There's an analogy that kinda came to mind
[00:05.577] It's like building sand castles on the beach
[00:09.159] There's like this ebb and flow in our lives
[00:13.113] Not just with our craft, but whatever it is that we're passionate about
[00:17.413] But just everything in our lives
[00:20.078] You're tryin' to build some idea
[00:23.571] But the tide comes in inevitably, knocks it down
[00:28.320] The first time that you build something you're really proud of
[00:31.869] And it gets knocked down, it's like soul-crushing, you know?
[00:35.577] Um, some people rush out, they like run away from the waves
[00:40.837] And they never come back, you know?
[00:43.001] And then you also see people who see the waves comin' in
[00:45.230] And they're just havin' fun, splashing around in the water
[00:50.305] They're immersing themselves in that moment too
[00:53.304] Like that's actually kinda like the beauty in the cyclical nature of our lives
[00:58.004] Is that you can start over
[01:01.217] It's expected, actually
[01:02.767] From a certain perspective
[01:04.535] If you accept that nothing's permanent, you know
[01:07.617] Including who you are
[01:09.581]
