So, I keep falling into this bad habit.

I think I have this bad habit of, it happens whenever I see new people, like people haven't

seen in a while.

And they're like, hey, how is this going?

Like for example, this whole summer, having a chance to really see a ton of our students,

when I have seen them, I've seen a couple in the last couple weeks, saying, so how has

thing have things been?

And my default is almost always like, oh, it's kind of been rough.

You know, here, let me clarify.

If I look back over the last however long, right now, my life right now, I'd say like 95%

of it is like good, like 95% is just life, like normal life.

It just, yeah, you got to work, you got to do this thing, you got to, it's just, it's

good.

It's life.

I exist.

That's awesome.

And maybe 5% are kind of a struggle, like 5% are the kind that just like, drags you down.

But what someone asks, how are you doing?

I always, I almost always emphasize the 5%.

Like even though the rest 95% of life is, this is good.

I will give so much power to that 5%, the power I give it is the power to poison the 95.

So someone says, how is it going?
