“don't forget simplicity. simplicity. simplicity. or the beauty of a good conversation, laughter, the company of real friends, a good nights sleep, a meaningful embrace, a common past, new friends, long drives, dirt roads, the peak of a mountain, exhaustion through exertion, a carried through crush, an accidental compliment, a goal accomplished, a bond unbroken by time, family, a sunset that melts into a sky full of stars, campfires, hand holding, a good book, a sleeping bag, cuddling, hand written letters, cross continental emails that inspire, memories new or old, and a night that ends like this one. no matter what, there will always be a night like this somewhere, sometime, tucked away and popping up unexpectedly at just the right moment. don't let go.”
