Love this concept you mention by Sedikides that nostalgia anchors us “to the continuous thread of who we’ve always been, which gives us clarity about who we’re becoming.” 💥

Isn't that beautiful- I totally put that in for you and had to tie my hands behind my back to avoid going off on a long tangent about it, though i totally wanted to. :)

Love this! Aging has its challenges. More time supporting my body is my most notable one. And while I used to see that as a negative, I finally relaxed into experiencing my body as truth teller. So while the “get up and make things happen” part of me still runs a lot of my day, I’ve found I am so much more effective when pause and listen, to my body, to my urges, to my inner voice. And I’ve learned Midlife is a glorious time.

As I read this, I'm struck by how much your brain and your body and your spirit sound like they are in a partnership- each protecting the other, amplifying the impact of strengths, adjusting for changes. I can't think of a better way to live or to age.
