amongst the redwoods

i spent this past weekend at bosch baha'i school at the insights conference. breathing in the clean air and standing in the quiet forest, surrounded by these beautiful, statuesque trees, i was reminded of new zealand. i got to spend time with some of my favorite people. refreshing and recharging. i needed this.

i think i could easily live in the bay area.

in other news, quilts are underrated. and i've found my dream quilt at urban outfitters.

what else? how about some incoherent babble.
i'm in la
i soaked up sunshine today
and i saw my beloved ocean
i felt stretched thin between family and friends
and the simple desire for a great latte and a nook
with a book
or my journal and a good black pen
hiding behind sunglasses
patience was tested trying to take in everyones needs
and not lose sight of my own in the process
happy to be here but wish it was simplified
sleep feels inconsequential
but i'm exhausted
your hands - strangely cool and wonderfully reassuring
i'm not sure what's next.
and i'm not sure that i'll stand for anything less than earth shattering.
