This is what I think connects us the most. Like it’s the big stuff sure we hate brushing our teeth etc and once upon a time I maybe didn’t know that I was not the only one who felt that way, but I’ve been connecting with people for years now and finding that those things match with so many people that there’s no way we’re alone in it, and sharing my truths again and again and again to let other people know they aren’t either because always if there’s one person asking, others want to know too. If there’s something I’m experiencing, others are too.

And yet… listening to you talk today about everything is a miracle… this is the part I think I’ve still felt alone in somewhat. The way that I view and move through life is exactly that just so much awe and wonder and curiosity and down to those tiny tiny details and I don’t know if I’ve ever heard someone else describe it that made me believe they see it the way I do too. It’s more than just being a glass is half full or a silver linings person. It’s so much deeper and more thorough than that. How can anyone NOT believe in magic when they see the majesty of the waves or the mountains, or look at an animal or a baby or a fucking daisy like the grass is magnificent and I feel lucky to touch it kind of thing. Don’t even get me started on colour or light and shadow hahaha 😂. This episode is beautiful my friend.

Hahaha Bri, this is just so funny because I’ve been parking along the water in Santa Cruz and about 7:30 at night every night so far the LIGHT IS JUST INCREDIBLE. Like the way it catches on everything at that hour truly makes me weep because I can not believe I get to do this. I take a deep breath like I can fill my lungs with it too. Those moments, are the absolute whole point I’m convinced and I’m so glad you wonder and awe at it too.

The last time I was here I was falling apart and there were these small yellow flowers that— when I walked past them, the smell of them brought me back to the moment and not the ache in my heart or how every breath felt painful. Those little yellow flowers saved me almost every day, but holy bananas if I wasn’t who I am to notice and be in total awe how such a small simple (but wildly complex thing because FLOWERS) could make such a big difference. The wonder and awe is what anchors me. Thank you for finding my quirky little episode worth it.
