fires burn, forests crumble; politics purge us of ourselves in office and Office. it's the shadows that make the grass always look so much greener.
me? i'm happy. i have no complaints to register. today i am grateful that the fires make for a vibrant sunset; that i can retreat home from paper piles to my own paradise. i don't long for anything greener. i'm liking the way the light dances on the brown tips of the blades and I'm content to let the dandelions roam. i can't chase the ever moving shadows, because i can't be two places at once.
it's just that im happiest about the little things lately. holding hands and coming home to a sun baked smile. it's the long chats with my mom as i commute and the dinners that we use to turn our kitchen messy. it's tide pools and granola acai bowls; hikes and unexpected letters. it's amazing to see life evolve into just what you wished for.
(i do hope the fires end soon though.)

Tide pools? Granola acai bowls?!? Oh man... I wish!
some might say that you are, in fact, looking for something greener
