Dear Rome,

I’m excited to uncover what the future holds.

I want to cradle those moments of uncertainty before some profound moment breaks it.

I want to learn how to sit with the unknown and be at peace.

How to appreciate the moments of dependence on others, as much as my own independence and be happy.

How to give the gifts of my creativity and excitement with out expecting anything in return except my own satisfaction.

How to receive the hospitality of people without feelings of obligation.

And to appreciate the sweet acclimation to somewhere new, the most beautiful part of all.

With love,

Mary
