Erin--thanks for sharing this reflection. I particularly enjoyed this sentence you wrote: "In Love, I saw that I scored three out of five stars. And in Health, only two." Something about it really stood out for me. It's almost poetic, isn't it. Like certain things bear more weight than others depending on life's condition and the human spirit.

Thanks for reading and commenting Thalia! It’s really interesting what you took away from the sentence. When I was rereading it, it simply came across as something quite matter-of-fact. :)

You’re right Erin- And I suppose that’s the beauty of reading and writing as a complementary pair—interpretation can be varied and deepening, even if it’s not intended. :)

Yes… And usually it’s the unintended interpretations that feel quite magical. ☺️
