the things i love are so small. my son's tiny hand in mine. the top of his head tucked under my chin. the coffee someone makes me. a guitar being strummed. wind rustling the trees. mangoes. stretching my body. my Dad's laugh. my Mom's Hello Honey, as she answers my call. sunlight dancing on water. being barefoot. a smile exchanged with a stranger. 
the things i love are so big. the mountains of northern Thailand. a whole country that both made and undid me. the lakes of Ontario. huge, holy trees. the sky at dawn. new beginnings. possibility on the horizon. this chaotic, beautiful world. Motherhood. hope. love. life.
