105: Parenting Thoughts (II)

We're nearly a year into parenthood.

Time flies!
Things change so fast.



Our son inspires me to :
◦ Sing more songs
◦ Reduce my screen time
◦ Hang out on the floor

He notices small, strange details.
And reveals new perspectives.

He teaches me to zoom in and zoom out.



Birth made me see life differently.

I see death differently now, too.


Last year, we brought our son to a funeral.
It was a stark reminder.

Birth and death are connected.


All things are transient.



How to spend this time?
