I love this! So much more encouraging and attainable than the typical "new me" resolutions!
I rarely set intentions or have a word for the year. Somehow, this year it settled in my mind that this will be a year of metaphorical feasting - feasting on learning, conversation, moving my body joyfully, going outside, new experiences (no matter how small). I want to experience it all with a mindset of joyfully abundance rather than one of time poverty. We'll see how I do when I'm in the middle of the semester and everything is coming due. 😆
I love everything about this! I am reclaiming the parts of myself that I miss as well. The thing is that I don't remember making a conscious decision to put them down one day. When I look back, I can see how life slowly chipped away at those parts of me until they were gone. I'm thankful for the opportunity to welcome them back and this time with a lot more wisdom under my belt.
I’m going to reclaim my old self too. I liked her much better and feel others will welcome her back. I long to commune with her as she is totally different in so many ways. I miss her presence in so many ways!
This was an awesome read! I have missed a few weeks. Thank you for always providing quality and thought provoking insights. I can definitely agree with me being a little more free when I was younger. I too would like to get back to that point.
I love this. The line that resonated with me was "The cost of reclamation is often much lower than the cost of staying lost." Thank you for writing this.

Thank you! May the feasting fill you!

Thank you! Thank you for reminding me to connect reclaimation with wisdom!

May you find time for that communion.
