rubber no longer holds the borders of my soul

somehow, through a lot of prayer - and maybe necessitated by just pure exhaustion - since my last blog post it's like i have flipped a switch and learned to let go of the future, and the past, and just to be where i am. this has never been an easy lesson for me, but recent study aids include:

• campfires
• gorgeous hikes
  
• good friends
• perfect cherries
• strong coffee
• an inspiring and heartbreaking reading list
• surprising honesty
• surprising hope

somewhere along the way i've started to realize that i can spend my time trying so hard to figure out how to build my life in the smartest and safest way possible...
...or i can spend the time actually living it.

i am going to fall in love with everything.
