Clearly this is a couple who are very much in love.

[Dr. Aaron Balick 🍉 @DrAaronB]

A couples therapist can tell a lot about a couple just by observing how they negotiate space on the couch.

At times my overthinking mind
Is an unreliable witness
What other people think of me
Is none of my business

Some people come to
therapy come to resolve an issue that is causing them acute or prolonged distress.

Others come because they want to explore themselves more deeply.

These aims are not mutually exclusive and many come for the former and stay for the latter.

Write a story about an unlikely friendship

[Science girl @sciencegirl]

There is a village in India called Antoli, in the Gujarat state, here a unique and unexpected story unfolded

A young leopard would make its way from the wild to seek the company of a domesticated cow. The pair would stay together most of the night, an unlikely friendship in which somehow both found comfort.

As an audience developed, the wild cat, wary of humans, decreased the frequency of its visits until they stopped. No one knows why the cat reached out or why the cow was so comfortable around it.

It was a joy - but as difficult to make choices as Desert Island Discs! Looking forward to hearing all the others. Fun … recording with my old pal and birthday twin, Roger McGough!

I’m stunned to see HOW TO SAY BABYLON on the @washingtonpost Top 10 Books of 2023! “This book grabs the reader with the beauty of its words...but it sticks because of the thorniness and complexity of its ideas.” Thanks so much to the editors & critics!☀️✨https://t.co/vcAG3rygiB

62 today! Funny- my son ⁦@mattkaymk⁩ reminded me that the numbers were the other way around when I had him! Just a flip and a skip ago. Still grappling with this strange thing called time ❤️❤️🌹🥂
