“We can find glinting silver linings hiding all around, so pluck them out of the ordinary and save them from obscurity.”

In this brief time on earth, we can choose many things, including to believe in the goodness rooted deep in most people. We can choose grace and mercy and can expect to find pinpricks of light within every blanket of darkness. We dream and do and carry on through it all. Here we are. 

 

“A melon breaking to share the sweet fruit inside. A serious face breaking into a smile. We break ... and yearn ... and find.”
