Out to sea

My youth, I'm discovering, is a strange and miraculous moment. I feel like a little sail boat in the middle of an overwhelming sea. Although the ever expanding ocean is breathtaking, it also feels all too consuming and scary. I am wondering through something that appears endless.
Mother you are like my light house. I guess just love is in general. It is magical guiding force that can been seen and felt from miles and miles away. If I know anything about kindness, gratitude, and love it is because of you. I carry a bit and you and dad everywhere I go. It is the unbelievable amount of love I've been given that keeps me a float everyday. I think that our experiences directly effect how we perceive the world. It is because of you that I am able to see so much beauty. I miss you everyday. You are my most trusted companion, and my kindred spirit. Can't wait to see you again.

love,

your little boat
