Morning fog drifted over Lincoln Park as I walked the shoreline, carrying a small cedar bundle. The tide exposed stones polished by generations, each step quieting the noise of modern life. I sat beneath a wind-shaped tree, breathing salt air, imagining the hands that walked here long before mine. Driftwood became an altar. I listened to gulls, to water, to memory. Bare feet pressed into cold sand, grounding body and mind. By sunset, the sky burned amber behind the Olympics, and I felt less alone, held by place, lineage, and the steady patience of earth beneath me today, now, here.
