Love this Monica! So much wisdom in this post. I love the idea of “feeling” my time. I spent decades running a marathon every day… that leaves little space for feeling. 🪴🧚‍♀️

That “daily marathon” energy—we know it all too well, don’t we? I think so many of us were praised for how much we could carry, how fast we could move, how little we needed. But now? Now we’re reclaiming the art of feeling our time… not just filling it. And there’s so much life waiting in that slower rhythm. I’m so glad this spoke to you.

I love this and I'm watching my dad who lost his wife of 35 years last October joyfully recreated his life. He joined a choir has never sung in public before now. He sold their home and bought his own home and is learning to play the piano. I watched him go through his pain of loss and step into a new reality with joy. He walks 6 miles a day, it's many friends he meets for Coffee dates and is now researching how to eat and cook healthier. We are never too old to create something new.

Thank you for sharing the story of your Dad. I had the privalege of living with my dad the last ten years of his life- he died at age 92. He literally never gave up, nor give in. He walked two miles every day and often said to me " Monica Rose, life is too short for a nap"! Indeed we are never to old!
