"Thoughts come to me when I'm on the water. It's clear who I am out here. Not who I am compared to anyone else. Out here feels like the truth to me, the simple truth. earth, air, sky, water. A natural rhythm to life. This is our place in the world, and I know my place in it. The exact opposite of high school, where pretty much everything and everyone feels fake all the time."
"I want to rewind to the day before my sixteenth birthday, when my whole life stretched out before me, sparkling like the sun on the clear water of a back-bayou channel. When my life had a rhythm and I knew my place in it."
"All I know is that when I look into my future, it's not here. It's in the place where I know myself: out there in that limitless place between two skies. Back home."
