Love this. Reminds me of a favorite Clarice lispector quote:

“This has perhaps been my greatest effort in life: in order to understand my nonintelligence, my feelings, I was obliged to make myself intelligent. (Intelligence is used to understand nonintelligence. It’s just that, afterward, the instrument—the intellect—having grown addicted to the game, continues to be used—and we are unable to pick things up with clean hands directly from the source.)”

Understanding my nonintelligence has been a New Year’s resolution of mine for a few years running now 😀
