The great one has spoken. Paul’s words of wisdom to his disciples from yesterday on his fab cult group
I have to be honest and tell you this. All of this.
There are some really sucky things about being an online presence. Don't get me wrong, most of it is just utterly beautiful. Truly. BUT...
So many people share so much of themselves and their sometimes heartbreaking stories or situations, that it would be impossible to 'feel' them all. Try telling that to a sensitive soul tho :/
Empath FTW. Sometimes.
Over the last couple of years I have had to learn 'professional distance', for my own sake and sanity. It isn't a not caring, it is a learning to hear without feeling too much kind of thing.
I hope that makes sense without sounding cold.
Hearing about Tante royally fucked me more than I thought even possible. Some of the most beautiful, loving, appreciative and honeslty warm voice messages over on instagram. I listened to them all again. My own fault,. Silly really.
So you know what, duck 'professional distance', it doesn't work and although its implementation came from a seemingly needed place of self preservation, it didn't work. It doesn't work.
So I endeavour to connect more. Again?
I suppose I have before so again is apt.
When I'll find the time to do this bugger knows, but I will. I have to.
You matter to me, to us, please know that.
Sometimes we/I don't respond right away, sometimes not at all if it doesn't need one, but we read and listen, always. Please know that too.
The last couple of months have been hella busy, and there's more to come, but still we read/listen/hear. Always.

I thank you. x
Well, there’s lots to dissect here I am sure.. but overall, why does he use so many words to say so little? Why should strangers care about Paul’s every thought? Wasn’t it meant to be a vegan channel? If anyone else in his group posted this, he would ban them and tell them not to fill the group with their negative wallowing posts that bring everyone down.
