everything shapes us

(everything shapes us - a new patchwork original painting. available for purchase here. prints available here.)

love. whispers. choice. time. devotion. sorrow. hope.

lost opportunities and silver lining mistakes.

who we choose. who we don't choose.

when we finally begin. when we let go.

when we leap fearlessly. when we crawl.

forever memories and forever plans.

laughter shared and carried deep + wide.

the beautiful circle of birth and death, beginnings and grief.

everything shapes us.

we are a collection of moments, memories, and shared experiences.

so much hope, possibility.

so much love.

it's a pretty amazing, life.
