This points me to where I belong, in the company of Wilde's, Schopenhauer's, Nietzsche's, and Goethe's. Thank you for this refreshing trajectory compass.

Reminds me of a quote I stumbled upon once or twice which goes,

“I have both madness and reason eternally warring inside my head, because of this, at times, my reasoning is mad and my madness has reasons.” - Daniel Saint

This season of my life I have been letting go of performing and learning to love and be truthful in expressing my weird self.

Cheers to all of us weirdos🍻

Wonderful societal research and analysis.
