Unearthed.


When I was little I dreamed of this beautiful place with this beautiful language, and a culture of whose I wanted to experience.

A few years later while standing at the bus stop, my sister shared a book that revealed that same dream.

I thought that I had to be different, and that we both couldn't carry this dream.  So I let it fade in my heart and let her hold it in hers.

YEARS later. Man posed this women with a question, seemingly out of the blue, "When are we going to Paris? Let's go to Paris" My heart thriving on adventure, especially of the spontaneous sort, responded with something like, "Let's go! Whenever you'd want!" And even though that question came and went like the breeze we sat amidst, it echoed within my heart.

It awakened this long lost dream. One of many treasures that had been buried was now unearthed.

Oceans seem like lakes, and country lines like neighborhoods to me now.

It's with overwhelming excitement that I share with you that I get to see this dream take shape and pour toward yet a couple more. Tomorrow- I'm going to Paris! :)

  1. The formatting went weird when I attempted to copy and paste this from my email, but I kind of like it, as in a way it seems unfinished- like the end of this story :)
