The Sun Will Shine Through
Today, the island we’re on is completely covered in fog. School drop-off was not an easy feat this morning. As I’m typing this, the fog is lifting. The sun is breaking through. I can vaguely see the streets below and the buildings around. This got me thinking to last year when my mind was still…
