Beautiful! As someone who struggles to write "outlines" and follow linear paths of writing, the idea of life spirals resonates deeply. I like the idea of seeing life as an ascension of a spiral staircase where we revisit the past with a new, wider perspective. That's the path of spiritual growth in my book. We get to see how far we've come from our "old" self and how we've improved. Glad you worked in Groundhog Day, too.
This is beautiful Sarah. I agree that thinking of life as a linear journey feels limiting, and I often find myself circling back to certain themes. I've also visited rural Nebraska and experienced those section line roads.
I find this spiral analogy to be very true to my experience as well. In my experience, I don't always find myself spiraling upwards. Regardless, when I find myself faced with the same issue/concern/obstacle it is always from a new perspective. Then it is most beneficial for me to address it - "What do you have to teach me this time!?"
