mountain, im alive.

You could sum the meaning of life into big moments like getting your dream job, having kids, etc, (if that is in your personal list). but I think the meaning of life can be found in the smaller moments like riding your bike through the city, seeing your favorite movie for the first time, taking a hot shower after a long day. Those moments for me, even though they’re not always memorable, remind me I’m alive and I think that’s what’s most important during our time here. During my time at this journey. At the top of this mountain.

“…When you see me pause and stare a bit wistfully at nothing in particular, you’ll know I’m deep at the roots of memory…”

- Sylvia Plath, from “Rewards of a New England Summer,
