Whether your own yearning for self-expression involves teaching, dancing, leadership, community-building, or running a restaurant, the hunger is the same: to get what’s on the inside out. To express means to push outward, to press into being: not just to transmit but to reveal, the way tears reveal grief and dreams reveal desires. And what’s pushed down doesn’t tend to obediently stay down. To try telling a loved one what's really on your mind. And you’ll see what’s on the inside that wants out.
