I FOLLOW RIVERS
Oh I beg you, can I follow?
Oh I ask you, why not always?
Be the ocean, where I unravel
Be my only, be the water where I'm wading
You're my river running high
Run deep, run wild
I, I follow, I follow you
Deep sea baby, I follow you
I, I follow, I follow you
Dark doom honey, I follow you
kinda proud of what 2022/23 me was upto. am in a much much better place now but also ...kinda not.
feels like i am at a much higher altitude and an easier path, but that kid was on the right path, and i am feeling a bit distant from who I am
also kinda ironic whenever i think about what i want to be, i always look back to him. like i am looking for my future, but i think i rightly feel that he is what i want to be
fwiw i think you phrased it fine.
people here are just ideologically brainwashed to think you are against the entire idea of maternity/paternity leave when you simply questioned if making it too high would have opposite consequences(e.g. employers quietly avoiding hiring women)
