I am leaving for Costa Rica in a few hours.

Last night I was thinking how I have been presented with these opportunities and these tools to survive and prevail through my life; not only this endeavor to Costa Rica but the return of my cousin Ashley from her semester in Spain. I have no choice but to believe these happenings are more than mere coincidences due to such precise timing and the lasting peace running through me they have both instilled. So, I am drinking my coffee and taking comfort in the absence of anxiety knowing that I am right on track and steady once more. Here’s to life learning, soul searching, adventure seeking, and artistic endeavor.
