  1. A quotation from Arthur Conan Doyle

    Beyond the obvious facts that he has at some time done manual labor, that he takes snuff, that he is a Freemason, that he has been in China, and that he has done a considerable amount of writing lately, I can deduce nothing else.

    Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) British writer and physician
    Story (1891-08), “The Red-Headed League,” [Holmes], The Strand Magazine, Vol. 2, No. 2

  4. The Weight of Wonder

    Two nights before leaving for the Pacific Northwest, I find myself surrounded by wrinkled itinerary pages, hiking gear, and a dream I’ve carried for nearly half my life. What begins as a story about planning slowly becomes something much deeper: learning that simply standing in the place you’ve longed for can matter more than finishing every mile.

  8. Yesterday, I Needed Quiet

    For the past few weeks, I’ve been sleeping more than I have in a long time. I’ll wake up only to fall back asleep again. Projects I’ve been excited about sit untouched. Chores around the house feel bigger than they should. I honestly don’t know why. Yesterday was no different. I almost didn’t go.

  10. Chapter Seven: Return to Wonder | Perfectly Imperfect Life

    For years, the Pacific Northwest has lived somewhere in my imagination. As July begins, I’m reflecting on why some places stay with us long before we’ve ever arrived and how learning to notice beauty has quietly changed the way I move through the world.

  16. A quotation from The Bible

    BELOVED: My love is fresh and ruddy,
          to be known among ten thousand.
       His head is golden, purest gold,
          his locks are palm fronds
          and black as the raven.
       His eyes are like doves
          beside the water-courses,
          bathing themselves in milk,
          perching on a fountain-rim.
       His cheeks are beds of spices,
          banks sweetly scented.
       His lips are lilies,
          distilling pure myrrh.
       His hands are golden, rounded,
          set with jewels of Tarshish.
       His belly a block of ivory
          covered with sapphires.
       His legs are alabaster columns
          set in sockets of pure gold.
       His appearance is that of Lebanon,
          unrivaled as the cedars.
       His conversation is sweetness itself,
          he is altogether lovable.

  32. Updated my profile description btw!
    Nothing too fancy but I'm kinda proud of it since I'm quite bad at describing myself or better said my hobbies/interests.

    Please let me know what you think about it!
    Is something missing? Does something not look that good in the way it's currently written?

    Any kind of answer is highly appreciated ^-^
