One
of the most effective ways
to numb
is through pleasure.
If we take pleasure
in our work
it’s as if we are not injured
as a byproduct.
But then
out of the blue
one deep conversation
can pierce through that veil
and outcomes
the pouring of tears.

Recovery
is what fuels growth
not
hard work.
Hard work
is necessary
but insufficient.
The Feeling of Support
While we may think
that we’re providing autonomy
for the employees’ benefit,
our employees
can actually feel
left alone
without support.
While we may think
that we’re expressing our concern
for the company’s benefit
our employers
can actually feel
uncared for
without support.
…
Support
is an event.
Just
as the confidence of an engineer
does not guarantee
whether the structure they built
is supportive,
our intention to support
does not guarantee
that support
happens.
