This is one of my favorite newsletters (spot the vocab nerd) and I’m excited to see what you come up with. It’s good that you’re feeling the need to shift and moving with it.
I don’t like looking too much at old photos because not only is there nostalgia but regret. “I wasn’t there enough”. But it’s also because I want to be present and see my children as they are now. It’s hard because they were such cuties but looking back means holding onto and coddling a baby that’s no longer there. Ugh. Bittersweet.
Looking forward to your next piece of writing, video or other creative expression. I'm not sure if you have already read, The Opposite of Meditation Is…Recess & I Need More Recess by Gretchen Rueben. Your post and listening to your video made me feel like sharing it. Enjoy!

Ugh I feel this so much! It's so bittersweet to look at the photos.
