06 June 2025 ~ Step One (Again)
It's only been sixty days since we last stood here after hesitantly cleaning out this space to make room for new furniture. Here we are again. With friends new and old.
In a way, this shakeup was good. I'm now comfortable with the idea of rearranging the familiar. I'm not even afraid of a total teardown and reset, if need be.
Several times in my life, there have been uncontrolled changes so ruinous that they almost destroyed me. So I taught myself to dread change; to strive only for unaltered familiarity, comfort, safety, permanence.
But now I see self-imposed change can be strengthening and revitalising. And it gives me some hope for resilience when uncontrollable life-redirecting changes rise again.
