rewilding #55 starting small

Even in this blog, I’ve restarted again and again. Starting over feels equal parts overwhelming and exhilarating. The questions of ‘who am I’ and ‘what do I really want’ aren’t new ones, but in my current situation feels like someone (me) is continuously screaming them in my face. Other words that keep surfacing are courage, grace, abundance, and starting small. In my experience, being big and doing big things are often masks for wounds and/or trying to fill the unfillable void. I have fallen into this ‘bigger is better’ trap my entire adult life, and this feels like a grand opportunity to lean into smaller joys and microadventures. 

For instance, discussing rocks with 2 young boys; having a dance party with these boys/mom; taking a 2 hour walk surrounded by fall colors, mountains, and infinite possibilities.
