It still fills me with warmth and joy just thinking about it. When I was 15-ish I went to a creative boarding School (‘Efterskole’ in Danish) and we put on a big musical at the theatre in Denmark’s third (I think) largest town. I LOVED this! I played in the orchestra — the flute, saxophone and various recorders. We took a few weeks out of the normal school schedule to put the final pieces together and these were the best weeks of my life — immersed in music all day long, playing together with people I love and trust. It felt like time was in perfect flow. I would relive that again and again.
I've got a similar one. Was 12 and did a rock and roll dance in a school production, it was SO much fun. Very warm memories of practising and performing that :)
Travelling in Australia. No plans. Me, my map and my car. It was a freedom I’ve never known since. Just deciding day to day what direction I’d go, where I’d stop to sleep and finding things to explore along the way. It was incredible.
Since Halloween was yesterday, this particular moment came to mind: It was Oct. 31, I was studying in Maine at the time, and I needed to get something for my Halloween costume. So a friend and I went to the mall to get it, and then another friend came to pick us up. As we were waiting outside the mall, my friend was playing some music on his phone and we just started dancing, right there on the sidewalk. We were happy, in the moment, enjoying life. One of my favorite memories 💙
A quiet day, nowhere to be, feeling the warmth of the Tuscan sun as I sat on a particular balcony, enjoying the heavenly view 😍
Ooh that sounds lovely!

It was 😍 I sometimes just lie remembering the long stretch of road I front of me on loop. So grateful for the memories and for the reminder from you 💚
