This resonates. Fear really does arrive at thresholds.

I’m meeting this moment less as an idea or an era, and more in the body—through illness and caregiving—where fear isn’t abstract, it’s physiological. I’ve learned that when the heart and brain fall out of coherence, we rush and brace. When they come back into coherence, discernment returns.

From there, the question shifts for me. Not what age are we entering? but what state are we in while we enter it? Tools don’t awaken us; they amplify the nervous system holding them.

I’m not afraid of the future. I’m learning to approach it the way I approach healing—slowly, relationally, at the pace of care.
