I know what I want for Christmas now too! I love to read and you’ve become one of my favorite Substack authors, so I’m looking for more 😋

These are beautiful. I’m going to forward it to my 22 year old daughter so she can forward it to her friend so they both can know what knowing looks like.

These are all so great! I particularly find number 5 interesting - music has such a touching way of bringing about more nuanced takes on themes

Such nourishing vignettes Charlie. Love the stories, including the gentle weave of your wisdom that rises from each one. Especially loved, "if they knew how to, they would" - a very important distinction to make for committed relationships. There are some things that it have taken my wife and I many years to learn to do for each other, the slowness to due to lack of love, but weight of personal habit.
