Emotions

Yesterday I returned the rented backdrops to Grosh in Sun Valley — and I had no idea where it was actually located. As it turns out, it was literally just doors down from the storage where all my belongings had been stored 8 years ago when I was evicted from my apartment… and just a mile away from the very house called “The Ranch” that a majority of my memoir is about.

A flood of emotions hit me all at once. I couldn’t help myself — I drove by, took photos and videos of all the places that so many chapters of my book revolve around. Ironically, this happened just as my book is about to launch. Coincidence? I don’t know.

Life has a strange way of looping back around, and yesterday was a vivid reminder of how much history is embedded in the places we move through.
