i have arrived in utah where i will be for the next three months.
right now three months seems like an interminable amount of time to spend in a place where i don't really know anyone. in a room that feels awfully tiny, awfully white, and awfully far from home.
but the mountains are large and green and one feels like they might just reach out their hand and actually touch them.
so i'll let the mountains do their work on me. and i'll be okay.
even if i have to cry a bit along the way.
like yesterday. on the plane. because i don't know that i've ever been so frightened. or felt so far away from what i had once imagined for my life.
or like today. because i miss my parents (and some really darn good tex-mex food).
but parents (and lupe's) will be in texas when i return in september.
and new york will be on the cusp of autumn when i finally make it back.
and who knows where life will be. and that's the exciting part, right?
