"But core desires like that don’t die, they just shape shift, seeping into other areas of life as a subtle invitation to return to them." I keep returning to this, thinking of Pluto's return to Capricorn, 2008, all the things my 16yo self was dreaming about. The dreams never died, they just shape shifted. Thank you for this reminder. 🥹

This was so beautiful to read Toni!!! I’m so proud of you and grateful to you for sharing with us! The music and instruments were also such a nice touch and really set the mood for me when reading. I’m actually in awe!!! Your vocabulary, the way you expressed specific experiences made me feel like I was there with you living through it almost…made it so real for me! Literally got goosebumps. Excited for what’s to come!! ♥️
