Love this story, and the captivating way you've brought the memory, time and place alive. Thank you for sharing it! This reminds me so much of my parkour days - something I only discovered in my 20s. As someone who also grew up very much following the rules, and not very sporty, parkour was a huge lesson in not only learning to trust myself but also in being playful in life. I don't train in any way like I used to, but the parkour mindset has altered me forever. So excited for you learning to skate! Play is very underrated in adulthood.
That’s so cool, Amy! Parkour is hard, so it’s amazing that you took it up and had fun. Dancing does a little of that for me but I haven’t danced in a while. Maybe a sign to start again 😬
