As I approach 60 my heart missed a beat when I read this this morning … I have ‘struggled’ for so long in this ‘fast’ world …. No more … slow blooming from now on … thankyou x
Slow bloomer here, too, feeling all the feels. It feels traitorous to say so, but I miss the early months of lockdown when it really did seem like the planet might tip toward slow and gentle. Thank you for your Sunday letters. Everyone goes right to my heart. ❤️❤️❤️
I can relate to so much of this post. My younger adult life was nothing but chaos, and all I've wanted is some grounding and slowness. I've had to scale back before when I've tried to exist bigger than what works for me. The pandemic has reshaped what my life looks like, and for me, small and slow is functioning and content.
Also I love slow bloomer. Makes me think of those rare flowers that bloom slowly and people watch and wait and once it blooms it takes everyone’s breath away with its beauty.
I also love it for practical reasons for I told several of my nephews to not waste time and money on college if they were not ready for it. Go work, pay bills, and develop a work ethic. This will serve them well in life as they will have years more worth of experience over their peers and save more money/get raises before the peers show up. But also college is all about being self driven and I feel that for most people that is developed by going to work, and paying bills on time. When it’s all on you!
