When asked what kind of player he was (someone who loved to win or hated to lose) he answered:    “Neither. I play to learn something, to figure things out.”That stopped me.The second was a post from Jim Kwik:    Easy now. Hard later.    Hard now. Easy later.Again, I paused.Both landed at a ti...

It’s unpredictable. It’s precious. And it has layers — physical strength, emotional load, mental space, and the quiet pull of being around people who “get” your new normal.There’s a special kind of energy that comes from being seen and understood — and you start looking for it.People who know the courage it takes just to show up.&nbs...
