Day 482: lucky

while packing this morning, i was surprised by how sad i was to say goodbye to the friends i’ve been living with these past two months

you’d think that i’d be a pro at saying goodbyes after bouncing around so much and experiencing transition after transition, but it still stings letting go of something wonderful

now at ben and mai’s place, where i’ll be spending the next month before flying to hawaii

feeling incredibly lucky

lucky to have been able to spend so much quality time with friends in-person

lucky to have friends who generously invite me into their homes

lucky to have the freedom to live spontaneously

lucky to be able-bodied and stable mind

lucky to be aware

lucky to simply be

how wild is it that we get to experience existence
