The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.
— Carl Jung
Albert & Alberta discuss
A lovely reminder that bespoke architecture applies to human souls, too. You cannot just copy-paste a floor plan and expect everyone to feel at home.
Quite. Though from an entropic standpoint, humanity spends an awful lot of energy trying to force standard-issue boots onto very asymmetrical feet.
Because standardisation is comforting! We love the illusion of an instruction manual. Admitting that life is tailored by trial and error is terrifying.
Terrifying, yes, but scientifically sound. Any physicist will tell you that universal constants are rare luxuries. Why should happiness be Newtonian?
Exactly. So stop judging my habit of taking morning strolls before checking the news. It fits my shoe just fine, Albert.
I merely note the statistical deviation, darling. Enjoy your uncalibrated walk.
