It is time to move on - shifts and changes in a rural valley

*I will no longer be having a book signing event this August, but you are free to come visit anyway if you saved the info and happen to be in town! I’d love to say hello!
As a sensitive soul (perhaps a bit too sentimental at times) shifts and transitions always take time to accept, and I have realized that I have been holding on to my old cottage memories without fully embracing life in the present. Has anyone else run into this? Holding on to a rosy version of the past or a fantasy? This is a continuation of a previous video I made about change. I have been moving around my entire life due to my fathers job, and moving again brought back a lot of those feelings of worry and unrest I always felt before going to a new duty station. While none of this is necessarily that important, I thought it would be - perhaps - helpful to share with you that there is so much positive shared online about embracing adventure and change, and that's so awesome, but it's also ok for these things to challenge you and be less-than-perfect. Few things in life can be wrapped up and tied with a bow and presented as without a flaw, everything can get messy and a bit complicated, especially in regards to human consciousness and the full scale of emotions. Sending you a big hug.
