James, I’ve always loved your writing. This endeavour feels like it has room to be personal and reach others at the same time, because everyone - and I really mean everyone, regardless of age or circumstance - is trying to grow a life (I love your sentiment) and to be entirely themselves, without the weeds of fear or self-loathing choking them.
Good luck with this, I’m looking forward to reading where your curiosity takes you.
Mel, I absolutely love this thought - everyone is growing and regrowing something, whether they're aware of it or not. Perhaps part of moving was about making that process feel conscious, and urgent. I think negative upheavals can do that 'for' people too. But there's no reason why we can't try to be gently, empathetically conscious of it for ourselves, at any time.
Dope endeavour - love
