39.

Suffering is not enough. Life is both dreadful and wonderful...How can I smile when I am filled with so much sorrow? It is natural--you need to smile to your sorrow because you are more than your sorrow.

-Thich Nhat Hann

ever since monday night the weather has been beautiful.

the sun's warmth has accompanied me along the first few days of this journey.

i think it's a timely little gift from the cosmos.

a gift like the love that has enveloped me since monday.
