I spent the last week in White Rock, B.C. for my parent’s 60th wedding anniversary celebration. It was pretty low key without a ton of extended family. Nice to see my brother and sister and have a little mini-return to our core family unit. It’s strange to reconnect with that but have it be in a much different context. We’re all older of course, each with their own health concerns, our concerns shaped by our own families and homes in different places. It’s odd to sit in that duality of “Me/Not Me” with personal histories and behaviors that we share yet with lives and individuality that are wholly separate.
