What positive experiences do you think you’ve overlooked, left behind, or lost as you grew up?
Growing up, it’s easy to get caught up in the struggles and challenges, often overlooking the positive experiences that shape who we are. For me, some of the positive moments I think I may have overlooked include:
Friendship Bonds: The sense of camaraderie and joy from friendships in childhood and early adolescence. Those carefree days spent playing outside or having sleepovers were filled with laughter and genuine connection.
Family Traditions: Simple moments like family dinners, holiday celebrations, or annual trips that felt routine at the time but offered a foundation of love and togetherness.
Milestones and Achievements: Celebrating small victories, like finishing a project, winning a game, or succeeding in a school play. As we grow older, we often downplay these achievements, but they were significant at the time.
Creative Exploration: The freedom to express myself through art, music, or writing without the self-criticism that often comes with adulthood. Those moments of pure creativity can be a source of joy that I miss.
Nature and Adventure: The wonder of discovering the world around me—whether it was climbing trees, exploring a new park, or simply enjoying a sunny day outside. Those adventures often provided a sense of freedom and excitement.
Reflecting on these experiences can be a reminder to cherish the little moments and to actively seek out joy and connection, regardless of age. It’s never too late to revisit those positive experiences or create new ones!
