Short walk around a pond on the outskirts of the city. Never far from the sounds of the highway, trains blowing their horns, and homeless residue scattered here and there.
I had to hold back tears writing this one. Even though it's not much on the surface, there is a lot today that sits deep inside me. Pride, worry, loneliness, pain, and sadness.
Today's hike was about friend's catching up, chasing a bird that wasn't a bird, and watching your friend get jumpy because you're a little too close to the edge.
