I’m working to find a middle ground—some fasting, some feasting. At some points, gobbling up life with every bite; in other seasons, mastering the appetites and tempering the desires. My work these days is to find that fine balance—allowing my senses to taste every bite of life without being driven by appetites, indiscriminate and ravenous. Some days I get it right, and some days I don’t, but I do know that along the way, the process is healing me.
