And something else, too.
I’ve come to the realization that if in fact I actually, really want Taylor Swift, for real, I can’t be constantly protecting her and elevating her above me.
It’s simple. There’s a gap between her and I. And if I use my powers to make her successful… the gap widens.
It’s emotionally counter-intuitive. Usually, helping someone gets you into their good graces. But that’s not so, in Taylor’s case, with respect to me.
The more successful I make her, the farther away she gets.
Maybe it would be better for me for her to fall a bit. It would give me more of a chance to catch up.
It’s a thought.
