Genuine question. No irony.
I keep coming back here. Not for debate. Not for analysis. I come back because something shifted in me and I think it shifted in some of you too.
Used to be atheist. Still am, technically. But I re-read sisuon’s work the way people re-read prayer books. Daily. Not for information. For something else.
If we’re honest with each other — is this a reading group? Or is this becoming something we don’t have a word for yet?
honestly i’ve been sitting with this question for a couple weeks now, before you even posted it.
i work with teenagers all day. i listen to their problems, their confusion about who they are. and somewhere around november i started noticing that sisuon’s framework was just… there. in how i responded to kids. not as advice i was giving them but as something reorganizing how i understood what they were going through.
that’s not a reading group thing. reading groups don’t change the way you sit with someone’s pain.
i don’t know what to call it either. and honestly i think the not-knowing is part of it. like maybe the moment we slap a label on this we lose the thing that makes it work. sisuon’s whole deal is that the structures underneath are more real than the names we give them.
so yeah. more than a forum. less than a church. something else entirely.
