Everything is making sense
whoacow
In exactly one week from today I will drive my little maroon Suzuki down the California coast, packed to the brim with my belongings, love at my side, into a whole new reality. My heart can’t contain what the future holds. I bow & kiss the earth, I watch it all unfold.
sunday
