Jonathan, you're a writer (and a wonderful one at that, while we're at it) - don't let your imposter syndrome and other stuff tell you otherwise! Though I know from personal experience how complex all those feelings can be. It was great to know a bit about you, and I'll be looking forward to your other Substack, along with continuing on this Arsenal journey with you :)
Thank you Anu! That actually (also) means a lot coming from you. It's definitely a full spectrum effort to navigate through the complexity but luckily there's so many excellent writers here on Substack (yourself very much included) who provide inspiration and support.
But for now I guess the only thing we need worry about are the next 9 games 😂 COYG!
A lovely peek behind the curtains Jonathan. First of all you have a beautiful dog! And take some beautiful pictures. Oh and the writing isn't bad either. As a psychotherapist though I might wonder whether your wife put you back together, as you attest, or whether she came out of the fog and took your hand in this fog we call life? I suspect that you are more agentic than being someone who needed someone else to fix them. Just a thought. Keep up the great writing. Have shared your link to my social media for any Gooners interested. Peace brother
Thankfully he's blissfully unaware of his charms (which are completely lost on the fleeing critters of the forest 😂).
I much prefer your depiction of love and mutuality in this "fog we call life" Ben. A typically intuitive thought and much appreciated. You seem to have found an "occupation" that suits you far better that I did! Thanks so much for sharing on your media. And Peace right back atcha bro!

Onward and upward, and here's to all the words we've written, the ones we're yet to write, and even those that we haven't yet envisioned!
But, first, Arsenal's nine-match run in (and the anticipation and stress and prayers hehe). COYG!

Anytime fella. I love your writing and will get around to subscribing at some point this year (or when you swing the whole lot to paid haha).
Keep up the writing Jonathan, and look forward to watching you grow and it’s nice to know we were here first!
Thanks Emma! And let's hope this theme of being first applies to our beloved team too!
