If you ever get to witness the colors the sky turns into right about the time the sun tries to hide and if you stay looking long enough for the moon to make its grand finale and my god, if you ever get to feel the wind while your feet hug the grass and the sun dances on your skin and if you ever, ever get to see an ocean so wide that it makes you believe in all the things you’ve had a hard time trusting and if you get to finish that day with a silent car ride and a playlist, then you’ve exhausted the secrets people spend their 9-5s trying to figure out.

And maybe you wonder if it gets better and maybe you’re hoping it does but I can tell you that unless we do things that make our souls come alive… things you can’t even dare to take a picture of, we’ll never realize that everything we need is a coast and a headlift away. everything we need is already here.
