Do you ever revisit something you once loved and find it doesn't hit the same? It's happened to me a few times in the past 4 years. 

But...that book didn't change. That show didn't change. I did. Sometimes, something finds us exactly when we need it most. Its impact isn't just about quality, it's timing. And that timing can never come again. 

Trying to get better at cherishing those moments of perfect resonance. Or even just noticing them in the first place.
