These days, I listen to Pink Floyd and drown out the thoughts trying to infiltrate my good vibes. I embrace the sun and take photos of what makes me happy — spring flowers, seagulls flying over the ocean, daydreamy clouds that let me pass the time in peace. I think of my grandmother, how this place was her whole life. She was the reason why I loved visiting and now I drive down the same roads she did long before I was born, I miss her dearly. I think of my friend who who I play phone tag with no connection made lately, that’s okay, we’ll catch up the way we usually do. The old radio starts the song, the passage of time with people we long to find along the way as they fade off into the back of our memories.
