Halloween is my wedding anniversary, so there's things to celebrate that distract from the triggers, but I was surprised this year at how much Facebook bothered me. How seeing the passage of time in all the baby ladybugs turned into toddler and school age costumes affected me deeply. We only get a few trick or treaters, but that's because most of the kids on our street grew up, and there aren't new ones. Thanks for your affirming, beautiful words.

And I would have added to it, except my husband took all the photos this time and he never shares anything. You are right it's important to define these events in a way that's personalized. It's fun when it intersects with the bigger culture (I loved trick or treating with my daughter) but it's also important to remember that non conforming experiences are equally authentic,torthúilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738803052167620020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-36043957997875855442016-10-31T18:38:03.834-07:002016-10-31T18:38:03.834-07:00You are amazing.

We do this at the end of a yoga class, and I've really been into the rhythm of that lately. It shows the impermanence of many things, including triggers.Lori Lavender Luzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394441222262940632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-4107838462246984672016-10-31T12:46:16.400-07:002016-10-31T12:46:16.400-07:00Thank you.

It is easier though in NZ, where it is only celebrated by some, and was never celebrated when I was growing up. At least here we are entering a period of light and growth. Blessed be.Malihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928262526502319303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129722175911979282.post-436024013987912602016-10-31T11:36:35.899-07:002016-10-31T11:36:35.899-07:00Beautifully statedBeautifully statedBriannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04066881815556809319noreply@blogger.com
