Scarcity dictates what’s meaningful.
ㅤ
When you are alone, a relationship feels meaningful. When you’re in a relationship, time to yourself feels meaningful.
ㅤ
When you are overworked, time off feels meaningful. When you have plenty of downtime, work feels meaningful.
ㅤ
The scarcity never gets solved, it simply changes form.
