Perfectionism and vulnerability
At times, because I do not separate my roles of a human being and a researcher, I feel that what I do is not enough. This concerns my ecological practices and also spiritual practices (including being in the world with others). I know that humans are imperfect and celebrate imperfection, but at the same time celebrating vulnerability is challenging. This includes discussing insecurities more openly, revealing my worries about my environmental practices, and concerns about being a good fellow being for the birds, the trees, the sea, and others.
