I write because I have no other way to survive.
I've learned that you can't control everything, but you can control how you react to it.
A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us.
We don't inherit the oceans from our ancestors; we borrow them from our children.
