Sunburn and Selfhood
…[I] reflect on my own persistent inability to enact the lessons I do learn. For example, while I know that staying in the sun too long will not only give me sunburn but will indeed destroy my skin over time and is completely pointless and superficial, I still do it every damn summer.
There are dozens of such examples: substantial sleeplessness will destabilize my mood and render me emotionally volatile, but I still stay up way too late if there’s anything even remotely interesting going on.
