I’ve been finding myself drawn to the waterline a lot these past few weeks. I’ve always liked the water, but lately it’s felt as if I need to check in more regularly. Can the tides reassure me that things change, that there is always ebb and flow? Am I checking to make sure the tide is still shifting? I feel exhausted with the world, but somehow stronger and healthier than I ever have been. Positive personal growth and public disarray are strange bedfellows.
