Steve, I appreciate your sharing of the journey and how the writing and your reflections seem... lighter ... somehow. Something about the tone or the reflective nature of the review of your time in Portland feels like a page has been turned (pardon the pun). Reading "it's these crucible moments that shape our story" hit home. Our stories are messy, non linear, meandering and challenging. They can be joyous or depressed. They can be light and airy or gloomy and musty. They can be healing or painful. They all shape our story and each add to the chapters of our lives. Welcome back mate.
