I went to the mountains because everything felt loud.
Not just the world—my body, too.
What I didn’t expect was that a stranger would say something
that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about since.
This is a piece about the body,
about what it holds,
and what happens when someone meets you there with kindness.
Thank you for sharing this with us, Maria. I feel the relief in your words. To be truly seen, bypassing the need for in-depth explanations is such a unique gift. A place you don't need words. Kate's obviously a special person to be able to offer you this deep, soulful connection. I'm glad you found this sanctuary close to home.
What a beautiful experience.
It really was such a gift!

Me too! I will definitely be seeing Kate again 😁
Beautiful Maria. A timely read for me.. thank you for sharing 🙏🏾
I’m glad something resonated for you, Haley. I feel so vulnerable putting stuff like this out in the world. I always hope it touches someone.
