"I cannot be pessimistic because I am alive." -James Balwin

I can be (am) terrified, rage-filled, heartbroken. And I'm alive. So are you.

And we're creative, filled with the capacity to envision and act.

I don't know if I'm an optimist. But I'm not a pessimist. I am alive. And that is enough.

As the first post here, this feels appropriately uplifting:

A photo taken on my walk, day #3 thousand something something something. (It's on my calendar.)

These walks have saved and created me over these past 8 years, and I'm so grateful.

Tell me something good in your life...let's connect here!
