Space

“Where will you go next?” people ask,
dying to know my answer.
In each “I don’t know,” I have space to
live out answers, empowered to walk the
path as it unfolds.
“I don’t know” brought me here, to these
aspen-dotted high desert mountains, to
someone I
choose to love wholeheartedly.
We’ll see what’s next.
