Look for the Heart Shaped Pizzas
When I was in high school, I was part of my church youth group. On Wednesday nights, we would get together to worship, hear a sermon, and then hang out and talk. The boys liked to skateboard and play tag and do stunts that would make me say, “that doesn’t look safe.” And the girls… Continue reading

September & October Favorites
Happy Halloween, y’all! Fun (and at times controversial) fact: Halloween is not my favorite. I’ve never been very into costumes, I absolutely hate being scared, and one year in middle school I got my braces tightened on Halloween morning and I couldn’t eat any candy. #trauma. But while “spooky season” might not be for me,… Continue reading

A Golden Gate Birthday (Part 2)
Saturday October 1, 2022 On Saturday we woke up with a renewed determination to see the bridge. We’d been given advice: 11:00am – 2:00pm. That was the window. The no Karl window.

En route to Seattle a few… Continue reading

A Five Sense Check-In (Getty Edition)
About six months ago, I spent a Saturday at the Getty Museum. After walking around the various exhibits on display, I sat out in the garden for a little while, and before I left I did a five senses check-in and wrote the details in my notebook. I forgot about it for a little while,… Continue reading

You Might be the Answer
It’s always easy to imagine that when you meet someone new or put yourself out there, things aren’t going to work out. It’s easy to imagine being rejected, which is why we often don’t want to put ourselves in that position to begin with. Saying the wrong thing, tripping over your own feet, doing something… Continue reading

Your Kindness is Never Small
Sometimes when I think about how big the world is and how many people are in it, and then how big the universe is and how much left there is to discover, I feel very small. I am just one person, in one place on one planet, in one galaxy in the universe. And when… Continue reading
