It seems like Winter and a slower pace was just weeks ago. Now, we’re immersed in graduations, birthdays, and holiday gatherings and I’m feeling the pull to do it all. Circling the crash.
Need to polish off my ‘no’ and put it in practice, I think.

I dream that I am teaching again, and having assigned the class independent work, I am spending time connecting with each student to see if they are grasping the material. It’s my favourite part of teaching, and I wake up wondering if I’ll ever have that feeling again. So rewarding.
It is bittersweet, growing old. Many of life’s goals have been achieved, and yet, the desire for more still exists. At least, it does for me. I’m just not sure what to do about it.
I thumb through social media, make lists, scan through photos, put the kettle on, check emails…
…evade the moment…
What am I afraid will happen if I just pause and be?
Maybe I should I try it and see…
