summer skin
so we were walking around the property, me and Kelli. and we stumble upon this turquoise bench, just sitting out in the middle of nowhere.
it was so unexpected, I fell in love with it immediately; had to take its picture.
I love unexpected things like this. most of the best friends I've ever had in my life have been unexpected, like this turquoise bench. all of them, seemingly out of place in my little life. all of them, just waiting to be stumbled upon.
rickety old bridges feel like rickety old friends.
they may have been through terrible ordeals during the course of their lives but they still bridge the gap between you and something else, between here and there.
you never really can be sure how much they can handle. if they collapse under the weight, you can't really blame them. maybe you were just too much ... maybe the timing or the weather had something to do with it. it's not like they want to be unsupportive or anything.
life and age takes its toll. slowly. surely. easy does it ... or far too fast.
just ... watch where you step. and be gentle.
like I've said before, I like to be on the edges of things.
summer is officially here ... thank God . . .
