There's something restless in your soul. Something dynamic, always moving, its right there in the fabric of who you are. You couldn't escape it any more than you could outrun your shadow. You are the kind of person who needs to know. You want to know if a sunset looks different when it's rising on the other side of the world. You need to have silence to know words, chaos to feel peace.
But you're also the person who could appreciate the air and the sun lying on your skin, whether you're in the Alps or on your own backporch. You can close your eyes and feel all the little things that most people let slip by them--right down to the lines in the wood beneath your feet to the way the sun filters through the leaves and makes the ground look like its breathing. You can close your eyes and feel your place in the world, and the world's place inside of you.
And that's what I see when I look at you.
I see the world.
And I know what you mean. I often take a second to think about the same thing--about how small I am in the grander scheme of things.
