āThe landscape feels endless, and Iāve found myself walking for hours without any true evidence of getting further down. But Iāve seen plants and colors out here that Iām not sure Iāve witnessed before. Thereās a beauty in the strangest places ā and the curiosity of whatās next continues to motivate me. I wonder who else is out here. If what I assumed inside is true, thereās got to be more like me. Sometimes Iāll feel a presence, or think I see something in my periphery, only to look up and see nothing. Itās just another thing that Iām afraid of that also excites me. It all just confirms all of the things that I hoped to be true for all of this time. I am out here and I am very alive. Iām sometimes scared, but always discovering something new, and I will not stop.Ā
Cover me!ā
