Facing the Lines
I will love those lines, should they come to rest on your face, because it will mean that you spent time in the sun and held thousands of days in your hands.

Sitting on the locker room floor tying skates onto the players, I felt miles away from the woman who could lay her hands on basically everything she possessed by walking from the camper to the Subaru.

The Eagle and the Raven
When I return to where I started, there is no Raven left. I am no longer what I was when I began. The trickster has left and in her place is the wisdom held in the eye of the sharpest predator.

The Boomerang Crux
There was always another crux on the horizon - aiming to hurry up and finish this one doesn't actually help. The crux is just like the mountain because it's not going to bend and you aren't really either.
