a glimpse
glimpse: DEATH BIRTHING LIFE | You are not gone. Because when you went, all of you stayed here. Peekaboo. You didn't need that white marble heaven after all, or an ending repackaged as eternity. You just changed once more, effortlessly.
glimpse: KALEIDOSCOPIC FOLIAGE | As we hiked towards Mt. Fitzroy in Patagonia the proud mountain kept its granite face veiled in clouds for the longest part. But a benevolent breeze had our backs and the closer we got, the more it tore the grey sky asunder, giving way to one of Argentina’s most iconic vistas and a jubilant sun soon playing with the kaleidoscopic autumn foliage and showering us in appreciation.
