Good Listener
Good listener, you may pass by a mirror and pause, stare awkwardly because you don’t remember the shape of your mouth open. You might even mimic funny faces like a goldfish. Yet, it will feel foolish. And if someone asked you about the sound of your own voice, you’d watch their lips move in awe, uncertain.

Harboring Happiness - Day 6
Today in harboring happiness, I have lost it. I think of brevity and how good things won’t ever last as long as we hope. With my friends who can sense my sadness and try to drown it with slobbery kisses, we continue our search and rescue in the field where stories begin and never end.

Harboring Happiness - Day 2
Today in harboring happiness, I savor the scent of clean laundry and realize that plans we make for ourselves are more important than promises we carelessly dole out to others. Filling the garbage bin, I trade the sting of rejection for the sentiment that strangers aren’t always meant to become best friends. Sometimes, they are too busy getting married or raising kids, and that’s okay.
