@foragetotable: The ocean looked endless once. Then someone put a bridge above it. The dark looked endless too. Then someone left a light turning. I think about that more than I should. How much of this world was built because something on the other side mattered enough. There is a Lion somewhere in the West who understands. A Bunny somewhere beyond it who probably does too. And Snow... Snow was never about the weather. There are only days now. A strange thing to say after measuring something in oceans for so long. I have seen the Pacific from places beautiful enough to make a person stay. But the closer the Lion gets to leaving, the more beautiful the West becomes. Almost as if a place knows when it is about to lose you. The lighthouse will keep turning. The bridge will remain. The Pacific will still reach the horizon. But soon, for the first time, the Lion won't be looking across any of them. He'll be looking at her. #foragetotable #yachats #hecetaheadlighthouse #oregoncoast #sl
