Dream: Travel

I travel.

Near and far. Out of my neighborhood, out of my city, out of myself.

To wonder.
To wander.

And appreciate coming home.

I am braver than this.

It's cooler, but everything is on fire. The trains seem louder and more frequent now, but they still don't keep me up at night.

finding the line between going deeper and forcing change.

Sometimes it means pushing past what you think is the breaking point to find yourself at place you can be longer because there's balance. It takes courage and trust in yourself to push the limit, but once you lean into it just a little bit more, you find it's less work to hang out on the other side of the breaking point.

Sometimes it means coming up against a wall and knowing that, in time, we will find our way over, around or through it - but we must breathe and be patient and be there.
