The Future of Struggle by T.K. Thorne
“Struggle” is not a word I naturally embrace. I recently posted this:
My housekeeping style can be summed up in 7 words:
“There appears to have been a struggle.”
Okay, I stole that from a dish towel in a gift shop somewhere.
I like order around me, but housekeeping is, indeed, a struggle. The effort involved in making order happen seems like a waste of time. Why make the beds when we’re just going to get in them in a few hours? Why clean the floor we are constantly walking on?
Cleaning the house is a process on a spectrum. If you are too far on one end, you can eat off the floor, but you are a neurotic mess or a zombie. Too far on the other end, and the mice are eating off the floor. But the more interesting question is, why do we need order?







Love the watercolor, TK! As for AI, just this morning I mentioned to another author that I hope there’s a special place in Hell for the inventors of AI and all the people using it to try to scam authors out of their hard-earned dollars.
Thanks, Lois. Amen to that!
Loved your painting.. Understand your struggle.
