"Bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing, and feel, feel what it's like to be new."
It's 5 am in the morning, and I've been awake now for nearly an hour and a half. I think I wake up earlier every day, although whether from the time change or the constant fears and worries inside my head, I'm not sure.

I'm going to finalize my travel plans to CA this week; I'll send you that info when I do. In the meantime, keep trying to be as kind to yourself as possible. Breathe in deep. Listen to your heart.
And know that many, many, many people love you a lot.
