strange, that.

you’re a hero, and like it or not you’re already forging your path. just look back on this blorgh, you are an original thinker. maybe it’s a surprise to you, but it shouldn’t be, that the world is full of openings — you don’t often have to hack your way through the jungle. mostly it’s open woodland and you can go cross country for weeks without really feeling like you’ve left the trail. and when you come to the thickets, you hack through with hard work. i have a feeling you’ve struggled at least once with a problem no one else has considered, or at least no one you know, no one who could lead you to the answer.

in short, hush. accept the pleasure of this success. for someone always cheering the underdog, success can be uncomfortable. but it’s a success all the same. you’re doing great. i say, without having read even an outline of the dissertation.
