This is beautiful! I can relate. It makes me think that people who have a "need" to constantly be growing and evolving in some internal way (or that's just who we are), must release the past remnants of who they were to clear that space for the becoming. Almost like those nuggets of past memorial show up as pebbles in the way of the future, pulling our attention to who we were in a way that can make us stumble. I hadn't thought of it as "composting" or being "drawn to the ephemeral" but this is thought-provoking and helpful!
