Start where you are, and begin again.

A few words before my surgery tomorrow about pain, struggle and agency, “They say that we have a lizard brain, but I know it’s a lion—fierce and territorial—that emerges when there is nothing else to keep us safe.” https://www.gotostepone.com/post/lucky-number-seventeen/ #crohns #ibd #autoimmuneathlete

For surgeries I have undergone over the last several years due to #Crohns, I have brought along a book to tackle one big subject,
2016: I Contain Multitudes
2017: The Gene
2018: Homo Deus
Tomorrow, for my 17th surgery, I am bringing @davidasinclair’s Lifespan

Thursday:

I won the lottery
of words
you pulled
out of fear
doubt
pain
joy
and formed
with ink
and pulp

My weekend is shaping up with @brianeno Apollo – Atmospheres & Soundtracks on vinyl and the documentary it was made for, For All Mankind @criterionchannl https://www.criterionchannel.com/for-all-mankind #moonlanding

I celebrated the anniversary of the Apollo 11 launch with the #moonlanding special insert in the NY Times. Excellent stories, illustrations and photographs on the history, as well as where we are now, where we are headed, and how we need space exploration to reflect all of us.
