And I wanna make the best of the second half of my life.
I think that's where I kind of got into this idea of soul span, which was my way of thinking about time differently.
We have two forms of time.
We have linear time, which we'd mark the days off the calendar as we, you know, march through the years.
And then we have this more kind of sacred time, which I felt quite inspired by nature because I wrote the book in seasons of life.
because time is circular in nature.
You know, we're just going into spring now.
Things are starting to come out, plants, things we haven't seen green on trees.
And I grew up on a farm and everything was driven by the seasons.
And, you know, the harvest was only as good as the season before.
And there was elements in the, you know, things like weather that would determine that.
And we forget that we've made this linear time, but time is actually really relative.
And in nature, time is circular.
It's always breaking down and renewing.
And we can tap into that.
And I feel like, you know, Einstein was like time is relative.
You go on holiday and time stretches forever.
But I can go and sit in my back garden with a nice cup of tea and I can make time slow down just by noticing, just by being aware, just by not scrolling on my phone.
just by slowing everything down and looking at little details that I maybe hadn't seen before.
And I found that quite amazing.
