From the journal
Usually my journaling has a lot of words and a bit if a chaotic execution but, sometimes, it gets very stripped down, very simple.

Jack came to us right before Hurricane Michael hit. He probably could sense the oncoming storm. These pictures are from that time.
Oh, morning
Come bursting
The clouds amen
Lift off this blindfold, let me see again
Bring back the water that your ships roll in
…
And sing
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
…
And tonight I know it all has to begin again
So whatever you do, don't let go
And if we could float away
Fly up to the surface
And just start again
Lift off before trouble
Just erodes us in the rain
…
Slow it down
Slow it down
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
Through chaos as it swirls
It's us against the world
The front of the rocks (left picture) together hold this quote:
God gave Noah the rainbow sign
No more water, the fire next time
(I totally put these together in the same post because of the orange and green colors 🧡💚)
The words on the green rock are from a Baldwin poem called “Imagination.” The orange rock has a Baldwin quote too, but I can’t remember which one.
