Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful reflection of your experience. I can relate to much of it, and I really appreciate your idea of putting the puzzle pieces back together, allowing the configuration to be different. Enjoy your time on the Oregon coast - I absolutely love it there!

Hi Caitlin,

How you wrote, it connected.

Following your mind as it floated across all these thoughts, being an observer to this was something beautiful.

I hope you are healing well from this.

You have my support.

Wish you well on all your ventures.

Hey Caitlin,

Now that you have returned to running and writing, can you share one way your relationship with those activities changed after years of not engaging with them? Enjoy Oregon!

Thanks Jay!

Oh yes definitely I am more grateful for both running and writing than I was before! I don't take them for granted, whereas before, I didn't give them much thought. I just did them. Now I'm grateful for the both, and don’t take them for granted, and remind myself of that regularly!
