My Greek professor edited our work with a green pen because green is gentler than red.
Red is stop. Stop screwing up. Stop being inadequate. Stop failing to get it right.
Green is go. Go toward learning. Go toward answers. Go toward understanding.
Keep going. Keep up the work of becoming. We’re all in the midst of that process. Don’t miss the next draft because you got too comfortable in the current one.
Mark up your life with a green pen. Give yourself permission to keep growing. And then go do it.
