Fix Yourself with Something-New

Kimia Eslah

--

You know me for being rigid. It’s not news. I struggle with generating new ideas and I struggle harder with accepting new ideas. Why fix what’s not broken? Why not duct tape what is broken? Why not learn to live without the broken thing (so it doesn’t break your heart again — I’m talking to you, ramen-place-that-won-me-over-and-then-closed)?
