Hello friends 😊

I was at the gym, looking out the floor-to-ceiling windows past my tree friend, Leafwise, at the North Sea. I became hyper-aware of my journey and how lucky I am to have come this far in years and miles!

My inner child (who grew up near the Pacific Ocean) was full of wonder, so I gave her the page.
