Tender in heart, true to her core, planted in a life of learning
Alissa is the epitome of these characteristics. “Be the change”.
She once spoke these words to me, and I carry the challenge within them deep in my heart. Forever I’ll hold them close. Her life leaves ripples with every step. You’re one of the kewlest in all of the lands, kemosabe!
Reflected a bit this week on some of my friends. I’m incredibly blessed to live a life surrounded by people who separate themselves from the rest.
Landon is one of them.
He’s a man I’d define as reliable. No matter the time or the reason, he’s been a constant in my life, a pillar, a wooden beam, steady, grounded, unwavering through it all
In a world that shifts so easily, that kind of presence is a gift.
The mind of a child. The imagination station rolling rampant in our years of young. Trains are so cool! I begrudge having let their greatness fall from my mind!
Where the hives once hummed with gold,
vines now climb the red brick walls.
The bees are gone, the rooms now echo,
still standing, only now in silence.
