For every moment in the future that might put a question in my head to doubt my sanity, content, and ever so elusive happiness, let this moment be a reminder that I was happy even if it was only for a passing instance on a mundane day.

If I were to be a thing in this world, I wouldn’t be something bold that steals the show or makes your jaw drop low.
Sand covered feet, and a home sick heart.
