Good and broken

Helloooo. It’s been a while, again -.-’ I have spent the past week in the San Francisco Bay Area, visiting friends and family! Gosh it’s so freeing to be somewhere that’s walkable and where you can easily get around with public transit, unlike LA and Honolulu ^^; I love it here so much and nature is so beautiful but gosh why does it have to be so COLD? T_T I’ve been wearing a winter coat every single day I’ve been here.
I went to Muir Woods for the first time today and omg I loved it so much! I’ve always loved redwood trees and the ones there are EPIC. My uncle and I kind of wandered into the park aimlessly and ended up on an absolutely beautiful hiking trail. I think it was called the Redwood Canopy trail or something like that. It connected to lots of different trails and we just kind of went where we felt like in the moment. Including one trail called something like Panoramic trail and it was soooo beautiful. My uncle also got me a little bowl thingy carved out of redwood and ah I love it so much T__T <3 Definitely one of my most prized possessions. Redwood trees are something that means so much to me. They represent something like strength, happiness, nostalgia, adventure, and wonder all at the same time. I will show pictures some other time^^
What else? Before going on this trip, I started going to a local park in LA, just to hang out. I bring a picnic blanket and just do the same things I would’ve done if I was in my house. Journal, reply to texts, sip on water, what have you. I enjoy the sounds of birds chirping, the warm pattern the sun creates over the grass, clovers, the picnic blanket, and the pages of my book. The jingle of dog collars, the sound of children’s footsteps as they run and play. My fingertips slowly getting colder as afternoon begins to turn into evening.
