• A gentle push from a loved one to get out of the house and into nature
• Fish and shrimp enchiladas from one of our favorite restaurants for dinner

A moment of stillness.

Reminder to self: make time for music. It makes you feel better, and you've been needing lots of that lately.

I'm savoring the slower pace of pandemic life and the opportunity to spend more everyday moments with my family. It's been years since I was home for the white peach harvest in my grandparent's backyard.

• Reconnecting with an old acquaintance, sharing vulnerabilities, and growing a friendship.
• Extra points for Echo Park in its full Los Angeles June gloom bloom.

In the midst of pandemic uncertainty, I am deeply grateful for "walk and talks" with life long friends and for their part in the journey of who I am today.
